She was also a member of the National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution. She was a gifted seamstress, beader, and quilter. She delighted in making beautiful ball gowns, wedding dresses and distinct clothing for her daughter and three granddaughters.

Mrs. Anderson also leaves behind many nieces and nephews of whom she was very close. Her nieces, Dianne Clees of Nipomo, Calif., and Jean Wride of Durango, Colo., were like daughters to Mildred.
