Her legacy extends to her great-grandchildren: Michael Cooke, Michael Blakeston, and William

Eisenberger, along with several nieces and nephews.

A proud resident of Terryville since 1956, Mildred was a lifelong parishioner of the Immaculate Conception Church. She found joy in her community, cherishing many lifelong friendships, particularly within the close-knit group at Quail Hollow. Her life was marked by love, laughter, and an enduring commitment to family and friends. She loved camping, spending time by the beach, taking trips to the casino, dancing, and all varieties of music.

Mildred's final days were a testament to her loving spirit. Surrounded by her family, she passed into eternal life in a room filled with love, stories, and treasured memories. Her sweetness and warmth left an indelible impression on all who met her. Even her caregivers would remark with a hand over their hearts, Oh my God... She is so sweet!

The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the aides, nurses, and Krista, her APRN at Cherry Brook Health Center, as well as the exceptional team at UCONN's ER and ICU. Their compassionate care and dedication brought comfort and peace to Mildred and her family.
