Mildred Lois Fotheringham Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 13, 2025.
Mildred Lois Fotheringham went to be with the Lord, her Mom (Madie Pyeatt) and Dad (Hugh Pyeatt), and her loving husband Joseph on March 9, 2025, at the age of 97. Milly was born on May 24, 1927, in Happy, TX. She died in her forever home in Merrill, OR. Milly and her family moved from Texas to Los Angeles, California and when she was 16 they moved to Klamath Falls. Milly went to Klamath Union High School.



Milly met her husband at a fairgrounds dance and they were married on October 26, 1946. Milly and Joe resided in Merrill where they had two girls, Yolanda and Denise.



Yolanda and Neal Buchanan of Klamath Falls have two children, Brent Buchanan and Dana Pine. Brent and Sarah gave Mom three great-grandchildren, Lauren, Ben and Evie and Dana and Kevin gave her two great-grandchildren, Preston and Hayden



Denise and Gary Klegseth gave her two grandchildren Joseph and Jeremy. Joe has one child, Abby and Jeremy has four, Maliyah, Camden, Makenzie and Emersyn. She has nieces and nephews and had many great and special friends!



Milly loved playing cards (Bridge) with a group of seven of her friends every month. She also enjoyed dancing and bowling, but her favorite was golfing.



Milly and Joe would travel to Reno to see her favorite artists Engelbert Humperdinck and others. She also enjoyed watching the Portland Trailblazers. Milly went on two fantastic cruises and had a special 50th

anniversary family party in Hawaii where she enjoyed artist Don Ho.



Milly wasn't all play and no work. She worked in a bank and helped with sorting potatoes at harvest time.



The family would like to thank folks for the great care recently including Toni, Mary, and Joyce to include all the medical care provided by Klamath Hospice.



In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to Klamath Hospice & Palliative Care, 2751 Washburn Way, Klamath Falls, OR 97603.

Millie was my cousin that unfortunately I did not get to see very often. She was a beautiful person and the daughter of my Aunt Madie in Oregon. Our grandmother, Inez Whitley, had 10 children. We were very close while most of us lived in California. My mother, Billie Whitley Crotty passed away when I was only 9. Madie was a sister of hers. I will always have fond memories of Millie and happy my family was able to visit her while she was living in Oregon. She is with our heavenly father & the rest of our family. Prayers go to all of her family. You were blessed to have such a beautiful lady in your lives. May she enjoy being with our heavenly family members and send us her love & grace. We will miss you Millie....I wish we were able to spend more time together.
Love you forever,
Judy (Whitley Crotty Fox)
