  1. So sorry to hear about your Mom guys. She was definitely a fine lady and always sweet to me. Harrold is losing a great group of people. My sincere heart felt prayers for your Dad and family.

  2. RIP Aunt Millie
    What a hole you will leave in our family, our church, and our whole community. We will always remember you as that little auntie with the big heart and smile, welcoming every cousin to town with open arms.
    I’ll never forget our family coming to your house in the evenings to visit often as a kid. You taking care of me after I managed to jump off the chute and ram the pitchfork through my foot down on your farm, or riding your Shetland ponies. In recent years thanks for always asking and caring about my family.

    Not many people stay happily married for 72 years. You and Ray always holding hands, showing us how it’s done was special. Love and miss you Auntie!

    Prayers and hugs to Uncle Ray and the whole family!

  3. Millie was always one of my favorite people ever since Dwight and I were married. She always had a smile and a kind word. She was so much fun to be around whether it was a farm sale that the Cattlewomen supplied the concession stand for or when she used to come over and I would perm and cut her hair.
    She was just a beautiful person inside and out. She will be missed. Hugs and prayers to Ray and the rest of the family.

  4. One thing I will always remember about Millie is when us kids would get out of hand, she would always threaten to “box our ears” or “clip our wings”. We probably needed it though. My condolences to the Salathe family. Millie was one of a kind and will be greatly missed.
