These pictures capture the ‘Mammy’ I knew! I love these!
What beautiful pictures of dear Mildred!
Mildred was one-of-a-kind. Her energy seemed endless and we really loved her. She always enjoyed sharing about her family and always asked about our children, Joe & Leslie. Mildred was a good neighbor who was kind to animals and people. We will miss her greatly.
We’ll sure miss Mammy’s smile at the soccer field – and her cookies at our tournaments. God bless her and those she leaves behind.
Our family truly will miss ‘Mammy’ and all her kind acts! I know my kids will miss her cookies for sure! We are so blessed to have called ‘Mammy’ our friend! Our prayers go out to her family!

We are so blessed to have known Mildred! We will miss her so much, but we know she is now pain free. Praying that God will give you all comfort in knowing what a beautiful, caring, compassionate lady she was. She has brought so much joy into so many lives and never really met a stranger. She was so special to us! Praying for all of you. Tom & Ellen Reedy

I was raised on Conduitt Drive. I can’t remember turning into the neighborhood without looking over at the Goad house. If the weather was good Mildred would be on the porch. At Christmas I would notice her little tree in the front window. My parents are both gone now and I don’t go into the neighborhood as much as I used to. I do still travel down Bridge Street and I know I will look at the house as I go by and think of Mildred. My sincerest sympathy to the family during this difficult time. Carole (Flynn) Ellinghausen
