She was preceded in death by her parents, Jess and Rosie Phillips.
Mildred worked for BASF Corporation in shipping and receiving. She graduated from Bald Creek High School in Burnsville, NC. She loved to grow vegetable gardens, can produce, and pick strawberries at Marston's Farm on Rt. 60 W. Mildred also sewed quilts and loved to cook for her family.
