Mildred worked as a supervising seamstress for 20+ years at Henson and Kickernick in Atlanta TX. She was an excellent seamstress and could make anything as well as paint beautifully. In her free time, she loved watching Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy, Days of Our Lives, and The Young and The Restless. She was an avid reader, great at puzzles and trivia, and was well known for her love of baking. During her son’s time in the military, she would bake pies for his fellow soldiers. Mildred was also a breast cancer survivor. Even at the worst of times, she had an outstanding sense of humor, and was known to tell jokes and stories to lift everyone’s spirits. She had a profound love for her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and her beloved husband “Bill” whom she had spent 43 years of marriage with. In her times of need, “Bill” made her health and happiness his top priority, and gave his all to his sweetheart until her last breath.
