My thoughts and prayers are with all of Mindy’s loved ones. My daughter Nadia goes to school with Elyse and they became instant friends when she started at Anthony Wayne last year so I have had the pleasure of talking with Mindy on several occasions (such a sweet, giving person) may she be at peace.

#6 Condolence By Barbara Fisher On September 22, 2018 @ 11:22 am
There are no words to say that will relay what I feel. . .I knew Mindy, Josh and the twins so well when they were born and still talked to Josh sometimes. I loved Mindy and the twins, and when they were first born I was so close to them. I totally loved all of them. This breaks my heart and I truly believe that she is with God and Evan now. She was the nicest friend a person could have a mother unlike any other. . .God be with you Mindy and the rest of the family. I will never say good-by but until I see you again. . .my heart and prayers and love are with you. . .

So very sad to hear of Mindy’s passing I remember her as a little girl at her Grandma & Grandpa’s and the many family gatherings there on Main Street in Clyde. My brother was Ron Pettys, Before retiring, I was Elyse’s special PE teacher. Mindy was totally dedicated to her family. My prayers go out to her family and close friends. Remember the dear times and take care of her girls.

#31 Condolence By Rachel On September 25, 2018 @ 7:23 pm
My heart is saddened to hear of this. I remember playing with mindy and Miranda when we were kids as our parents were friends. Later in life I was reunited with mindy after donating money to her friend when her little boys passed. I was so happy to get in contact with her again and she was always such a sweet beautiful person. As a mother I can’t imagine the pain she endured when her son passed. My heart breaks for her family and her daughter as they move on in the days ahead without her. Mindy you will be missed tremendously by so many and I’m so sorry and hope that you are able to be at peace now. Rest easy sweetheart ❤️
