gratitude will live on forever."
Mildred Schmitt gently passed
away on November 4th, 2012
wrapped in the arms of Jesus
and welcomed by her son,
Tommy, and daughter, Joan,
who preceded her to their
heavenly home. Mildred was
born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada

to join family who had already relocated
to the states. Although she left for a number of years, Mildred's
heart remained in Shelton where she returned and renewed the many
wonderful relationships she had with family and friends.
She truly was the woman who could do it all...work (C.C. Cole
and Sons for 22 years), care for family and home, hobbies (flowers
and dolls), give to her friends and above all serve her Lord. What
an amazing woman we have lost but she will live on in the hearts of
all who were touched by her. She is survived by daughters, Donna
Nelson and Verdell Harrison and their families (many grandchildren
and great grandchildren who she dearly loved), sister, Mary Roberts,
sister-in-law, Verdell Crockett, nieces Terry Mills, Gerry Orr, Freddie
Ervin, and Karin Coolen and nephews, Jim Roberts and Fred Winsor.
A family celebration of her life will take place on her 94th birthday,
