The Sun Sets With Sorrow on the Jewel

As the sun lowered its head the other evening it was paying respects to Mildred Soule, mother and grandmother to the Coslett Family. Mildred or "MeMA" as called by her grandchildren and great grandchildren was a lady of elegance, intelligence and style. She was a woman of goals and determination and joined the ranks of Rosa Alexander, Shirley Wohl Kram, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, and Sanda Day O'Connor in choosing a career in law despite the tremendous pressures of the day for women to stick to teaching and or nursing.

Mildred was a resident of Heron Point where up until a few weeks ago she was getting into her car to run errands, meet friends or give her opinion to those in need. The Betterton Blogger was fortunate enough to have spent time with this wonderful lady at Christmas dinner where she actively engaged in discussion and thought. I along with my readers extend our condolences to Wendy and her brother Jay along with their families. Mildred is survived by her brother.

Betterton Blog readers and followers are encouraged to leave their thoughts and prayers for Wendy, Jay and their families as "comments" to this post. Let us all join in celebrating her life as she joins the supreme court of the Heavens above.
