I remember Mrs. Miller very well. She was a very kind and generous woman. My mom used to help her around the house in the late 70s/early 80s. After school my sister and I would walk over to her house (she lived right behind St. Joe's so it wasn't far) when our mom would be over there. We'd hang out in the sun room and read all kinds of interesting books she had. I remember the day my mother got the call from her son Frank that she had passed. We were very saddened. To my mom it felt like she had lost a good friend.
