Condolences
Mickie helped me so much during my early years at RB. I always looked forward to her visits, often just to chat. It gives me comfort to know she is at Abraham Lincoln cemetery - just south of my Laraway School, where I taught before my career at RBHS. I'll always remember seeing both of you at mama's nursing home in Knoxville several summers ago when you made the long trip to Galesburg. What a wonderful surprise and just about as thoughtful as could be. Sending much love to you, Nicole!

Dearest Nicole and family~ I am so sorry for the profound, heart-breaking loss, but I know that your mom lived a full and happy life! She was always so proud of you and adored you! She was one of the most giving people I have ever met and she enriched my life. I have happy and fond of Mickie and will cherish them. She was a good woman, a great woman and a blessing to the world. Now, she is an angel in Heaven watching over us. I love you, Mickie and Nicole! ~Cheryl xoxo

Nicole, Mary and Mickie's honored families and friends, Mickie has left her family and community a very special legacy. Live, give and love during life to the fullest. In some ways I'm sure there are many people including myself who feel she was available to help, or care for each of us at some point during her time on earth. Rest in God's loving arms for you have lived life well.

Please accept our deepest condolences at Mickie's passing. She was a good wife to my best and lifelong friend D.J. She was also a good mother, friend, and 2nd mom to many children. She is with Donnie watching over all of us.
