Mildred was born August 26, 1934 in Mecklenburg County and was one of eight children born to Elby Bavard (E.B.) and Bessie Watkins Fisher.

Mildred grew up on a farm in Charlotte’s Newell community. She continued her love of farming and raising cattle until a few years ago. Mother Nature was telling her to slow down. She was an ace at small engine repairs, and it came in handy when working on her tractors and other equipment. Mildred was very close to her family and loved her nieces and nephews as if they were her own children. She will be greatly missed.

Survivors include her sister, Virginia McCorkle; numerous nieces, nephews, and great-nieces, and nephews.
