Millie will be lovingly remembered by her five children, Jennifer Potvin, Dan (Pam) Jordan, Teresa (Greg) Blevins, Ronald Jordan, Mark (Helen) Jordan; 10 grandchildren; 13 great grandchildren; and 2 great-great grandchildren.

From an early age Mildred loved Jesus and served people. After meeting her husband at Pilgrim Holiness Bible College in Owosso, Michigan then getting married on August 22,1953, they pastored for over 40 years. They served in pastorates in Sandusky, Marion, Jackson, and Mansfield, Ohio, as well as in New Mexico, Delaware, Virginia, and West Virginia before returning to Ohio to continue serving at the Bucyrus Church of the Nazarene. Whether it was through playing the piano, teaching Sunday School, Children's Church, Youth Leader, Nursing Home services, Small Group Facilitator, or sending cards, Mildred loved folks like Jesus. Through her card ministry over the years, she has encouraged and touched thousands of people.
