  Mildred W. Miller 
    
  MICHIGAN Mildred W. Miller, 91, passed away Thursday, September 22, 2011, at 
  her daughter's home in Michigan. She would have celebrated her 92nd birthday 
  on October 2. Mildred was the wife of Edward H. Miller, an attorney in 
  Lebanon, who preceded her in death this past December. They were married for 
  60 years. She spent most of her life in Lebanon before moving to Michigan 
  several years ago. Born on the Christian Batdorf Farm in Lickdale, Lebanon 
  County, on October 2, 1919, Mildred was the daughter of the late Paul 
  Cleveland Wilhelm and Minnie I. Darkas Wilhelm. Mildred was a graduate of Pine 
  Grove High School and Kutztown State Teachers College, where she received 
  degrees in English and Library Science as well as a teaching certificate. 
  Following graduation from Kutztown, Mildred taught school in Strausstown and 
  Robesonia, and then became the school librarian at Harding Junior High School 
  in Lebanon. She taught for approximately 10 years before dedicating her life 
  to her family. As a member of Salem Evangelical Lutheran Church, Lebanon she 
  worked as a volunteer visiting the home-bound and was also a member of the 
  Good Samaritan Hospital Auxiliary. She enjoyed activities with her family such 
  as boating on the Chesapeake Bay, trips to Cape May, New Jersey, and visiting 
  her daughters and grandson in Michigan where she summered for 25 years. She 
  was an avid walker for exercise and was an excellent cook. Millie will be 
  remembered by all who knew her as a compassionate, kind and gentle person. Her 
  remarkable and unconditional love for her children and grandson will be keenly 
  missed. Surviving are daughters, Elizabeth Holmes and Sally Miller, D.O., both 
  of Michigan, a grandson, Alexander Edward Holmes, who is a senior in high 
  school, and sister, Betty J. Wilhelm, Lebanon. She was preceded in death by a
