Mrs. Morris was a dear and very special lady. I feel so personally blessed to have known Mrs. Morris and Mr. Milton as clients and dear friends for many, many years. Mr. Morris was one of my heroes and Mrs. Mildred was a gentle soul, who I had the deepest respect and admiration. I will remember them both for the remainder of my life.
Mrs. Mildred was a very special lady. She and Mr. Morris were both just the kindest, caring friends you could ever want. I loved her sweet smile. I will miss her and her generous heart.
