RTM Mildred Rockwood Has Passed Away

It is with a sad heart that I report here that long-time RTM Mildred Rockwood passed away this morning, at the age of 87. Of course, she was Auntie Millie to me, and was simply a wonderful woman. She was so very supportive of my involvement as Moderator. She loved being an RTM, and even up until the very end, there was very little that happened in town where Millie was not one of the first to know. Even with the untimely deaths of her husband Rocky in 1975 and Alan in 2003, Millie seemed to enjoy life more than most people I know. A loving family (which included about half of Walpole), 12 grandchildren, and this great town of Walpole were her sources of great pleasure in life. So, Auntie Millie, who always sat in the first seat of the last row of the left section at Town meeting, say hello to Uncle Rocky and Moody for us, and know that Walpole Town Meeting will miss you terribly.
