CONDOLENCES
From: Norma Adams
Relation: Friend
Please accept my sincerest condolences. Millie was a wonderful club woman
and an amazing role model for women in every walk of life. She was never
at a loss for a witty remark, but was always kind and generous in her
personal relationships. She was a great resource for the members of the
GFWC/OFWC Lake Erie District and we shall miss her presence at our
meetings.
I personally will miss her kindness and guidance; in many ways, she was a
mentor to me.

Lake Erie District President, GFWC/Ohio Federation of Women's Clubs
