Mildred was born in Portsmouth, Virginia on August 26,1933, to Edward and Lucinda Elliott. She accepted Jesus Christ at an early age and rededicated her life to Christ when she joined Fellowship Baptist Church where she served as a faithful member for 50 years. Mildred attended New York City schools and graduated in 1951.

Mildred loved serving at various churches in her community, as a dedicated choir member, usher, and member of the Mother’s Board at Shiloh Baptist Church and Fellowship Baptist Church.

 

In her spare time, Mildred loved traveling, watching sports, cooking, shopping, fashion, attending community events at the Maple Heights Senior Center, and spending time with her family and friends. Mildred was affectionately known for her humor and often “firecracker” wit amongst family and friends.
