Family tribute, “Those who knew Mimi were blessed as she was the most caring and giving person. Her love for animals stretched from horses to dogs to even a skunk and a ferret. She took in every stray as her heart had room for everyone especially her fur babies. She loved a good cheeseburger, antiques and her home and gardens were always filled with unique treasures. She will always be in our hearts, she called us her sunshines, and she told her family she loved them to the moon and back. She will be forever in our hearts.”

Plans for a small memorial service are pending and will be announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the OBX SPCA in Manteo, NC.
