Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
I want to say how sorry I am for your loss. You probably don’t remember me, but I used to babysit at the dairy farm years ago and have thought of you all often. You are in our prayers. Charlene Pinkham(Miller) & Arlene Lowmaster (Miller).
Sorry, instead of Earl, I meant Dennis, as I knew Dennis it was Mr. Mies. When my cousin notified me it brought back many memories and I guess as was remembering hanging off the back of Earl’s truck irritating him and telling us to get off as he drove away. Todd
Our family is saddened to hear the news of your loss, and cannot express our gratitude to have known Mr. Mies and have your family as our neighbors. We have always been especially thankful to Earl and Joy for coming down to Arkansas for the funeral of our Husband and Father. Our hearts and prayers are with your family.

Earl & Cathy, we were so sorry to hear about your Dad. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of sadness. Please accept our condolences.
My sympathies on the loss of your husband, father, and grandfather. I didn’t really know Mr. Mies on a personal level, but enjoyed going out to purchase raw milk from the dairy in West Wichita. I continue to miss the excellent quality of his products.
Kelly McVey & Family, To lose a father is amount the most difficult. May God’s comfort embrace your heart. Your in our prayers. Steve & Michelle(Hampel)Jahn
I was deeply saddened by the loss of your husband and father. I can’t imagine how you feel but be assured that our prayers are with you. Growing up, I always thought he was a neat ol’character! Can’t forget the parties at the dairy either! Prayers be with you all….
