Mildred Fornett Obituary
Born in Plains Township, she was the daughter of the late Stephen and Julia (Parada) Jackloski. She was a graduate of Sacred Heart School, Plains Township, in 1955. She retired form Eberhardt Faber and Mid-East Aluminum, Mountain Top. Millie was the kind of person who was always there to provide a helping hand. Whether to lend an ear, help solve a problem or to offer advice, she always knew just what to say to make you feel more comfortable and to put your mind at ease. Her heart had no boundaries and she truly was an angel on earth.
Preceding her in death, in addition to her parents, was her brother, Stephen Jackloski.
She is survived by her beloved husband, Leonard, who shared 57 years of marriage; her sisters, Betty Cusick and husband, Tom, Allentown; and Irene Yechimowicz, Plains Township; sister-in-law, Ann Jackloski along with six nieces and nephews.
Friends are in invited to attend a Mass of Christian Burial at 10 a.m. Tuesday in St. Jude's Church, Mountain Top. Interment will be at the convenience of the family. McCune Funeral Service Inc., Mountain Top, is assisting the family with the arrangements.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to the American Cancer Society, 712 S. Keyser Ave., Taylor, PA 18517, would be appreciated.

I am so sorry to hear about Millie. She was part of my childhood and I have great memories of our family trips up the mountain to see you and Millie. She will be in our prayers.
