Mildred was a faithful and devout Catholic, and a member of St. Mary's Catholic Church in Winneconne. She was also very proud of her membership with Ducks Unlimited in Winneconne. Mildred also enjoyed rummage sales, antiquing, taking car rides and going out to eat. She loved her cats, and enjoyed seeing the lilacs and roses in front of her house. Her greatest accomplishment was her children, and she always loved talking about them with others.
