    So deeply saddened to here of Mildred’s passing. We were friends in high school, went to Dargin Baptist Church together. She was a great comfort to me when my children went to Shelby Academy. My love and prayers go out to Jimmy , James and their family.
    Sincerely,

    So saddened to hear of Mildred’s passing. Prayers for Jimmy and the family. Will married my “grand niece” Gabby. My husband Bobby Joe Seales grew-up knowing the Hoggle and Knowles families very well. May God bless and comfort during this time of loss.
