Albums show family celebrations, spaghetti dinners, covered bridges, Woods Chapel, reunions, weddings, and the Statler brothers. Mildred was born on June 23, 1930 in Cooperstown, New York to Jefferson William Pierce and Thelma Elizabeth Lott Pierce. She loved many things; travel, playing organ, crocheting, gardening, gospel music, grandchildren playing, Bingo, crafts, sing-a-longs and church.
