Funeral Services will be held at 11:00am on Wednesday August 22 at Holly Grove Baptist Church. Bro. Jack Hester and Bro. Roger Lee will be officiating. Burial will follow in the church cemetery.
Mildred was a Lovely Christian Lady, serving as a Sunday school teacher, many committee’s especially in the kitchen. She enjoyed working in her yard filled with Azaleas and Daylillies, her favorites. But she will be remembered most for her blue speckled pan filled with chicken and dumplings she always brought for church covered dish dinners and annual homecoming.
