As postings on 'Citizens for Life' and other organizations accumulate tributes and recollections from those within and outside of the many pro-life organizations across the nation, that Dr. Jefferson devoted much of her time and effort to, express the loss of a "brilliant spokesman", "exceptional speaker" and as a "close friend" who impacted their lives; it was announced that her closest cousin, a Baptist minister, plans to have her funeral and burial held in Texas. She will be buried with her parents. The following quote best summerizes her views on human life:
"I am at once a physician, a citizen and a woman, and I am not willing to stand aside and allow this concept of expendable human lives to turn this great land of ours into just another exclusive reservation where only the perfect, the priviliged, and the planned have the right to live" - Mildred Fay Jefferson
