She was a very beautiful person and I always enjoyed talking to her.

She reached out to me when I enrolled at BCC in 11th grade and she was the first person I met there and she was always smiling and friendly and smart.

Mimi was a kind and wonderful person.

I may be wrong, but I think she died in a car crash her freshman year at the University of Wisconsin.

I still think about her.

Mimi was so nice and always smiling.  We knew each other since the first grade when we both lived on Washington Ave in Chevy Chase. I will never forget her.  Life ended to soon for Mimi. RIP

It is hard to believe how long it has been since her death. I sometime think of her and how her life might have bee. It always makes me sad.

Mimi was one of the sweetest girls you could ever know.  What a shame that her life ended so soon.  She has been missed for many years.

I thought Mimi died in the first semester of our freshman year which was 1966, not 1967.  Mimi was such a beautiful soul, she was such a tragic loss.  So many of us were so shocked and we've never really forgotten.  I guess one doesn't forget.

I was at the same university with Mimi when I heard of her death (so very sad), and I remembered it was in the middle of winter in January or possibly February 1967, which was still our freshman year. Please update us if anyone has different information.

I'm sorry if I have been wrong all of these years about Mimi.  I was told that she and some college classmates were driving from Wisconsin to the DC area for Thanksgiving, November, 1966 and there was a car accident.  I don't know which state or how many died.  Since you were a classmate, I assume you would have the corect information.
