I only met Millie once, but that is all you had to do, meet her once and you were hooked. Amelia Lukomski was the cousin of my husband's grandmother (Rita Governski). It was my first and currently only visit to Herkimer in 2011. We were unfortunately there for Grandma Governski's funeral. It was a sad weekend because I never actually got to meet Grandma Governski before her passing but in turn I finally got to meet "Aunt Millie" who my husband always talked about. Millie welcomed me and the rest of the Governski's with open arms and her famous chocolate cake! I had heard stories about this cake and it lived up to its fame and then some! I remember being so impressed on how great she got around and her young spirited soul! She was a firecracker! We just laughed and laughed! She was so excited to show me all of her photos of her children, grandchildren, and friends on her table in the den. She was just beaming with pride as she told me stories about everyone. I joked with her that if I sent a picture, it better make the table! I actually think our sons picture might have made the fridge! That day will be forever ingrained in my memory. Millie kept in touch with us through phone conversations, letters, and emails throughout the years. She always sent her love and let us know how much we were thought of. Millie was there for my husband and I during some pretty tough times and was always supportive and encouraging. She truly was an amazing woman. I can't wait to (try to) make "Millie's Famous Chocolate Cake" for my son some day and tell him stories of Aunt Millie- the tiny little spitfire! She will be greatly missed by many and my heart and prayers go out to the family.

Millie was a very special lady, always with a smile on her face and so kind. I worked with Millie at BOCES and was always excited to see her. Since then we always exchanged Christmas cards and she would write the most wonderful note to me. I wish now I had gotten to see her more often as she was always so welcoming and her cooking the best. My husband and I had a wonderful spaghetti dinner there and we will never forget how delicious it was and how gracious a hostess she was. She loved her family and friends and was a great inspiration to all, making all of us feel very special...love you Millie, Joanne Valentine

My sweet Millie… It is with such sadness that I found out yesterday of your recent passing. Millie and I crossed paths years ago at Selma's Bible studies. And when I would run into her at church, I enjoyed tapping Millie on the shoulder and having her turn around to see her sparkling eyes and warm smile. We both so enjoyed these friendship hugs/moments. Millie took a genuine interest in my family, asking me each time how my husband was, with him having had some major medical issues, and how my two daughters were. She especially wanted to know how my special needs daughter was doing. And if this daughter happened to come to church, Millie would make it a point to tell her how beautiful she was. She was persistent in that, knowing my daughter needed a lot of encouragement. When I cannot find the words to sum up the emotions of my heart, I tend to look at those Hallmark cards to help me out…. "It only takes one smile to offer welcome And blessed be the person who will share it. It only takes one moment to be helpful And blessed be the person who will spare it. It only takes one joy to lift the Spirit And blessed be the person who will give it. It only takes one life to make a difference And blessed be the person who will live it." (By Amanda Bradley) Millie, I'm so thankful to God we were able to share some of our journey down here together….

Thirty years ago Millie welcomed me to the BOCES family with open arms. When I met her I thought she was one of the most beautiful women, inside and out! I was fortunate to be among the people who Millie welcomed into her home for some amazing dishes. She loved to brag about her family. I will always hold a very special place in my heart for Millie. When I met Millie she was breathtaking, and when I found that she had passed...it took my breath away! God bless all who have had the pleasure of having Millie be a part of their lives. She was truly an angel on earth! Rest in peace my dear friend.

We would enjoy afternoons on the porch with my six hounds (bassets and coonhound). But when it got warm outside Grams would tell me to bring my furkids inside for example in the back room if it rained or got too hot. Grams told me the story of her dad having hunting dogs and when it was cold outside she would beg her dad to bring the hunting dogs in from the cold. He would listen to her and bring them in around the fire. Grams was such a compassionate person with people and animals alike!

Grams let my husband and I visit her with six of our dogs during the Summer of 2006. Grams loved animals! We all went to Cooperstown one afternoon, my husband and I and six dogs. My husband Ben went to the museum and Grams and I sat by the water at the park. Suddenly clouds came in quickly and it started pouring. Grams and I and six dogs had to run to the car as fast we could. By the time we got to the car we were all soaked! It was a hot summer so being soaked was not too bad....

I met Millie in 1970 - 44 years ago - at Herkimer BOCES. We became instant friends. Millie's father would call BOCES and say, "I want to speak to my daughter Catroppa." We would always chuckle about that. Sometimes Millie could be a little prankster and she would always make me laugh! She would be the one who could always keep a straight face! Millie was like a second mother to me. I taught her to crochet and spent many hours with her at her home. I have every card she ever sent me... Millie prepared many delicious lunches for me and it was always such a delight to visit her. The picture included was taken at one of the many lunches Millie prepared for her BOCES friends at her home. Every time I went to her house I always went in the bathroom and looked at the little black and white photo of Ed smoking his pipe. Millie loved him so. What a gift from God my Millie was. I always told Millie she was a treasure who would always hold a special place in my heart. She was my angel. I moved to Florida a year ago and made a surprise visit to Millie's house when I was in New York in September. I'm so thankful I did. Millie was my "forever friend" and I will always cherish the memories of our times together. She meant the world to me. Millie loved her children and grandchildren and was always so proud of them. My heart goes out to you in your loss. Her love lives on in all of you. My deepest sympathy and prayers are with you. I love you, my dearest Millie. Farewell my forever friend. I will miss you deeply. Love, Kathy

Dear Grams, Thank you for being such a beautiful grandmother and a best friend to me. Please forgive me for not going to your funeral. I feel so frustrated that I could not see you one last time. Every summer I would dream of visiting you again and had thought to myself that is something were to happen to you before e I could see you again, that there would be then no sense going to your funeral if I could not see you one last time alive... I am so thankful that our family that lived closer than me were able to visit and care for you. I am also thankful to God for your wonderful neighbors who also made it possible that you could stay in your home until your final days just as you would have liked it to be. I am going to miss talking to you on the weekends when you would give me moral support during my difficult times and when we would have a good laugh about things. The last time we had a good laugh it was about the landlords wife leaving her underwear in the cellar lol I look forward to seeing you and grandpa in heaven one day. I know you are in heaven because you are fine, Christian lady that everyone loved. You constantly gave to everyone even through your delicious cooking. You always trusted in Jesus and told me not cry when it was your time, which has been hard to do. Until that day when it is my time to join you and Jesus and my fur kids I will surely miss you! Love, Ingrid

Aunt Millie just bubbled with love and caring. She enjoyed the Easter Baskets and Pointsettia plants that the East Herkimer Fire Dept. Ladies' Auxiliary gave to her. You'd have thought it was a million dollars the way she went on about our kindness to her! She just couldn't believe we'd think of her. Why wouldn't we? She was one of the sweetest people I ever knew. When my husband Duffy passed away on January 27th, she wrote me and my family the most beautiful and comforting letter. I read it once again after receiving the call from her special neighbors, Ron & Carol Beach that she had died. The words in that letter really hit my heart once again. I'll miss our visits, Aunt Millie. Love, Nancy

So sorry for your loss, Janet and family. I remember your family living around the corner from our house which was on E. Steele St. I would see your precious Mom all the time giving out her smiles even though I was a child at the time. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, but love leaves a memory no one can steal. Your memories of her will live on. God bless all of you with comfort and strength at this sad time. The Ciupka girls....Helen, Irene, Olga, Marge, Marion and Luba.

Janet and family, Sincere sympathy to all of you. There’s a hole in your hearts that will never be filled; however, may you find comfort in knowing your loved one is in Heaven. May memories of the laughter and love you shared with her bring you peace now and always. Those we hold closest to our hearts never truly leave us. They live on in the kindness they have shared, and the love they brought into our lives. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Every holiday and special occasion, Millie's name and cheesecake bring smiles to our family....so far it has not failed me; and its been probably 25-30 years. We had some great times at Herkimer BOCES and I will never forget her kind and wonderful personality. She was "one of a kind".
