Milly was raised and lived in the Winter Park area of Wilmington, N.C. and spent most of her life in the area. She was a member of Wesley Memorial Methodist Church in Wilmington. Her love for the mountains and her son called her to Campobello, S.C., where she has resided for the last four years.

She had a passion for horses and Harleys. She knew no strangers and was compassionate and loving to many. Her love to help others was indescribable. She had a true love for her husband, her dogs and Bill W. Her contagious smile and laugh will be missed by all.

A celebration of her life will take place on November 10, 2012 at 4 p.m., Shelter No. 6 in Hugh Macrae Park, Wilmington, N.C. In case of inclement weather the service will be in the gym at Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church 1401 South College Rd., Wilmington, N.C.

Donations in memory of Milly may be made to Hospice of the Carolina Foothills, S.C. at 1810 South Carolina 14, Landrum, SC 29356.
