Mig was very talented in many areas. She made the very best lemon pie!!! Although I moved away over 28 years ago we kept in touch by letters and by phone and I will miss her.
She always called me “Babe”—a nick name of long ago.
Kent and Pattie (and girls) we’re so sorry about your loss. Although we never met Mig, we’ve heard nothing but great things about her. Please let us know if there’s anything we can do to help ease all of your heartaches. Love Shane and Jen
