Micki was a helpful friend to us here at Mountain West in Wolfeboro. We were blessed to have known both her, and her husband, Mr. Flitner. Very special neighbors!

I just found out of Micki’s passing. I was fortunate to know Mickie through our mutual spiritual quest. She was such a wise woman, so patient, so understanding, so encouraging. A peaceful soul who radiated that peace and love. I feel privileged to have known her and will remember her in my prayers. So sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss. If a man die, shall he live again? Perhaps you, too, wondered about this. Well, the Bible makes the promise: Your dead ones will live…they will rise up And the Bible also says,: the righteous themselves will possess the earth, they will reside forever upon it. So yes, soon you may be reunited with your loved one, possible right here on earth. Please find some comfort from these facts during your time of need.

I wish to express my sympathy to Micki’s family. Micki was and always will be very special to me. We met years ago and worked together with hospice care in Wolfeboro, she opened her home and her heart to me and I loved our times together in deep spiritual conversations, she was the one person to feel comfortable with on my spiritual search. Although I had not seen her for a few years, her spirit has always been with me and I am so grateful to have had her be a big part of my life. She will always remain in my heart.
