MILLS, Elise Marie: Dedicated Wife, Mother, Grandmother, and Great-Grandmother, Elise Mills, age 95, of Penticton, BC, passed into God's hands from natural causes October 4, 2014. She was a wonderful example of faith, hope and love. Elise was an amazing woman, who's strength and wisdom will be clearly missed. Elise had an unwavering faith in God. In her active years, she was a member of the Seventh Day Adventists. She was a beautiful example of Christian fortitude. Elise was musically gifted and God gave her the most beautiful voice which she used to worship and praise him every service. Her family was so grateful to have had her in their lives for so long. She taught her family so much by her example. She was so open with her love and affection for everyone. So forgiving and kind to all. She took such pleasures from all the simple things in life. All the small miracles, a sunny day, a bird's song, a flower in bloom. She was such a good story teller and fun person to be with. She enriched many lives through her gentle way. She was a very humble person and gave all credit to God. Elise was predeceased by her husband of 61 years, Esmond Mills. Together, they had 8 children whom they loved dearly. Through their love, they created a beautiful family that extended to include many grandchildren and great grandchildren, each who will miss her dearly. Don't weep for me, for I've made it home. Through Heaven's gates, there I roam. Wipe your tears and dry your eyes. I'm in a better place with Heven as my prize. Don't weep for me, no tears and no sorrow. Live life for Jesus, he promises tomorrow. In keeping with the wishes of Elise, there will be no funeral services, instead Memorial donations may be made to the SPCA.
