Mildred lived in Chickasha Oklahoma the majority of her life. She worked in the local nursing home, at USAO, and at Grady Memorial Hospital as a housekeeper. She loved God, her family, her church family, and her many cats. Although she never married and never had children of her own, she was an amazing friend, sister, "mom" to all the people she loved, especially her nieces and nephews that she helped raise. She was the sweetest, kindest person that you would ever meet and was always helping her neighbors, family, friends, and even strangers.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Chester and Beaulah Blacksher; her stepmother, Lorene Cox-Blacksher; two sisters, Molly Sanders, and Wilma Goff; and three brothers, Ervin, Amos, and Floyd Blacksher (who died as a newborn).

She is survived by her sister, Naomi Garret of Hinton, Oklahoma, and many nephews and nieces.
