    I remember Minna from my childhood and she remembered me even after a long seperation. Minna was given the gift of sining and being able to talk to anyone. Minna will be missed. Rest in peace.

    Minna was always dressed “to the nines” when she worked for the Senate. She worked so hard to bring Tennessee Ernie Ford to Helena. I know you will miss her very much.

    With His comfort and blessings,

    I will miss Minna’s smile and warm conversations. I knew her while my mother was at Cooney. She always had a kind word for me. My sympathy to her family – she was truly one of a kind. I will miss her.

    Maxine always had a story to tell.
    While caring for her at Cooney we became very close. At the end of my shift, she would sing for me and I would give her a back rub. She loved flowers with vibrant colors. Her african violet is at full bloom. There hasn’t been a day go by that I haven’t thought of her. My sympathy and prayers to her loved ones. She was a very special lady.

    I will always have fond memories of Minna ( Maxine ) we shared a love for dogs together- specifically “cocker spaniels” I have one now and she and I would talk about our love for our precious pets and wonderful our spaniels were! we talked about the love of singing~ I will cherish our talks and our times together laughing.

    I know she is up in heaven singing and dancing and feeling free of pain now ~ I will miss her sweet spirit and her contagious laughter so much ~my life is all that much richer to have known her and to have heard her stories~ may she rest in eternal peace. C. Foskette

    Rest in Peace Minna. I will always remember when the Barnetts shared Thanksgiving dinner with the Miller family at your home while i was growing up in Helena. You and your family have a special place in my heart. Harry Barnett
