SEKERAK – Mildred L., 96, of Mundys Corner, passed away peacefully December 18, 2021 at home surrounded by her loving family.  Jesus took her home, ushering her into glory.  She was born May 7, 1925 in Marion Center, daughter of the late Joseph and Emma Mearnic.  Preceded in death by husband Ernest J.
