Condolences & Tributes

Add A Condolence

My deepest sympathy go out to the Mills Family, especially Catherine & Harvey Mills, ll. I do not know the words to say. From the time, when we were young children, our families were friends. Even as we grew older, the two families stayed friends. We ate together & spent many holiday gatherings together. She corrected us, if needed. Oh how I am going to miss her homemade rolls. Mama Cat believed in God & Jesus Christ. The good Lord blessed her with 97 years & she still look young. Mama Cat was a kind, sweet, & beautiful lady. Mama Cat & my Mother, Mrs Lillian Washington, RIP, were like sister. They talked every day & night. They are in heaven now, both cooking up a storm, & having fun. Mama Cat, May you RIPπŸ™πŸ½βœοΈπŸ˜‡ Forever you will be missed. Viesta Washington πŸ™πŸ½βœοΈ

Rest well Mrs. Mills.
