Mildred Christine Cast, of Del City, OK, went to be with her Lord and Savior on January 2, 2014. Mildred was born to James Lawrence Criss and Annie Jane Covey Criss on December 14, 1932. Mildred is a graduate of Shawnee High School and married the love of her life, Ronald G. Cast, of Del City, OK. Mildred and Ron are members of the Country Estates Baptist Church of Midwest City. They also hold associate membership in Bethel Church of Choctaw and hold the Rev. Dick Temple in high esteem. Mildred loved flowers and animals. For many years, while she was physically able, there was nothing she enjoyed more than working in her flower beds. She loved Irises and roses the most. She found enjoyment in giving family members and friends startings of her beautiful irises. Over the past 64 years we had many pets; both cats and dogs. Mildred cherished them all. For the last several years, son Steve, and 2 cats could be found napping with their Granny. Son Randy’s dog, Rosie, was often found sleeping at Granny’s feet when she was in her recliner. It seemed that animals were drawn to Mildred’s sweet spirit and the unconditional love she had for them.
Mildred is preceded in death by her sister, Ruby McMahan; her brothers: Buck Criss, Rudolph Criss, and Tub Criss.
She is survived by her husband, Ronald G. Cast; sons: Steven Phillips Cast of Edmond, OK, Richard Allen Cast of Auburndale, FL, and Randel Gene Cast of Moore, OK; her sister, Louise Harness of Olathe, KS; 5 grandchildren; and a number of great-grandchildren. Mildred was a devoted wife, mother, sister aunt, and grandmother. Mildred loved and was loved by her many family members and close friends. She will be missed by those whose lives she has touched.
