Mildred Fotheringham Obituary

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.
