Last saturday I attended a memorial service for a previous Peace Corps Volunteer on the Island. Midlred, was a volunteer from 1981 to 1983, and 67 years old at the time of her service. She passed away this past April and in her will requested her ashes be scattered in the ocean by her family she lived with while in Kosrae.
I went to the service and it was amazing to see 40 people attend. Mildred left Kosrae over 20 years ago and still people remember her. It was a very amazing event.
