Duane,

The first time I met your wife was

at your dad's bedside in the hospital. She was so loving and warm and I felt like I knew Mildred for years. Over the years we have seen you, briefly but our hearts, thoughts, and prayers are with you and your family. May God hold you in the palm of His hands.

With heartfelt sympathy,

The Stech family

Unfortunately, for us, we only knew Mildred for a very short time, but the time we spent with her was one of joy and laughter. We will always remember her wonderful smile.



May God give you strength to get through this very diffiult time.

My dear Mildred,

You were an exceptional nurse and gave your best to the SCI patients. I remember when you wanted so badly to transfer to SCI and how you bugged me constantly! What a joy it was to be with you and to visit with you about your travels, your family and your beloved Duane. I will always cherish our talks and the hugs we shared. You are an exceptional human being and it was a privilege and honor to have been in your presence and be your friend. The Lord will welcome you to heaven with open arms and I will always love you and miss you. My life was made better by having you in it. God bless your family during these difficult days and may He always hold them and you in the palm of His hand.
