I was a classmate and friend in high school. Condolences to her family and friends.
Mintha’s knowledge of antique doll restoration was incredibly vast and infectious. I have so many happy memories of picking out antique fabrics, in her sewing room, that she would soon turn into the prettiest outfits for my dolls. She was always gracious and a true southern lady. My condolences to her family.
Mintha was a wonderful person.
We were friends since high school.
We visited often when l moved back to Winston Salem a few years ago. I am now back in Cary and will miss being able to call her and discuss dolls.l will think of her when i look at my Familee dolls.
