In earlier years, Mildred helped with the Girl Scouts and played on the Maxwell softball team. She was active in the community and volunteered much of her time serving at the Community Historical Society and the American Legion Auxiliary. Mildred was artistic and enjoyed making ceramic dolls and other projects, many of which she gifted to family and friends. Music played a big role in her life and Mildred especially enjoyed get-togethers with her family to play the piano and share musical talents.

She was preceded in death by her parents; two brothers, Earl Smith and Jim Smith; and three sisters, Ethel Nady, Dorothy Smith, and Mary Lou in infancy.

Ryan Funeral Home of Nevada has been entrusted with the care of Mildred and her family.
