Mildred Chenault
A Heart Full of Faith & Family
Mildred was born on July 17th, 1934, in Guymon, Oklahoma. In 1952, she married David Chenault, and together they built a life that spanned five decades. Though their marriage eventually ended, they were blessed with three wonderful children—two boys and one girl. She is also a proud grandmother of two and a great-grandmother of one.
Shortly after their marriage, Mildred and David moved to Missouri for his job, where they settled down. Mildred found her calling in service and community by working at the Bates County Hospital and later owning an antique shop in Butler, MO. Her deep faith has been a guiding light throughout her life, having accepted Jesus into her heart as a young child.
Mildred joined us at BHHM after a series of falls led her daughter to seek more comprehensive care for her. She was our very first resident in the skilled nursing facility here at Baptist Homes of Adrian. Her warmth and wisdom have been a blessing to everyone she meets.
When asked about her greatest accomplishment, Mildred proudly points to her children. Her love for them shines through in everything she does. In her free time, Mildred enjoys listening to old country music, especially Elvis Presley, and relaxing with a good word search puzzle.
We’re so grateful to have Mildred as part of our community.
