Mildred was born on August 1, 1922 to William and Jane (Revis) Barmore in Adams, NE. After graduating from Adams High School she continued her education and later taught at a country school. On September 23, 1943 she was united in marriage to Francis Thul in Eagle Grove, IA. In 1954 they made their home in Fort Dodge. Mildred loved helping others. She was a Physical Therapist Assistant, a friend, and most of all a homemaker. Her family and friends were the core of her life. One of Mildred’s gifts was working with her hands. She loved working in her vegetable garden or tending to her rose bushes. One could find her sitting on her deck with her best friend, Charlie the dog, enjoying the serenity of her back yard. She was a collector of angels, enjoyed quilting and sewing with the First Baptist Church women. Mildred’s faith was deeply weaved into her life. She was a member at the First Baptist Church, Friendship Circle and the Crusade Bible study. She enjoyed taking drives with her family and then detouring to an ice cream shop for a treat on the way home. Mildred loved baking chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin cookies and homemade dinner rolls. Mildred’s pride and joy was her family, she devoted her life in helping others and will always be remembered for her love, caring touch and her sense of humor.
