Mildred was born in Myrtle, Manitoba on June 27, 1924 where she went to school and helped out on the farm with her brothers and sisters. After school, Mildred moved to Winnipeg where she was employed with The Bay. Shortly after arriving in Winnipeg, she met and married her husband Fred on December 15, 1945. Mildred and Fred moved to Riding Mountain National Park in 1969 and made a home with their two children Ron and Donna. Mildred participated in all the community events and enjoyed weekend outings with the ladies to curling bonspiels throughout the area. They later moved back to Winnipeg in 1973 to be with their family. Mildred was a wonderful homemaker and an excellent cook and baker. The house was always filled with wonderful aromas of an upcoming dinner. She also loved to do all types of handicrafts and knitting, and made beautiful outfits for her grandchildren. Mildred was predeceased by her loving husband Fred in 2010 and is survived by her two children Ron (Heidi) and Donna Ternovatsky (Doug); four grandchildren Lisa Smith (Kevin), Leigh Ternovatsky (Kelly), Neil Ternovatsky (Lindsay) and Nicholas Ternovatsky (Malina); and two great-grandchildren Hannah and Kaitlyn.

Mrs. Tippen was one of those wonderful ladies who leaves the world a better and happier place because of her love, many genuine acts of kindness and her unique, gentle, caring ways. All who met Mildred were touched by her grace, humility, good humor and quiet sense of presence. One always looked forward to seeing her at family gatherings. She was always so interested in others and kind to our girls, always giving her encouraging words. It was an honour to have known Mildred and Fred, such great citizens and family people. May they rest in peace. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to the whole family in Manitoba and Alberta.
