Millicent Marie
Fairhurst
Oct 2, 1922 — Dec 10, 2017
San Jose
Millicent passed away peacefully early Sunday morning, with dignity and grace. She was born in Amberg, Wisconsin to William Suzawith and Ellen Anderson. She is predeceased by her parents, her husband of 54 years, Paul, and her children Patty, Mike and Pancho. She leaves behind her children (and respective spouses), Barbara (Scott), Mary and Janice (Dave),Terry (Valerie) and Joe (Tim), and daughters-in-law Denise and Samra, her grandchildren Hillary, Brian, Kris, Alicia, Greg and Kyle, as well as her great-grandchildren Logan, Dillon, and Oliver, and loving friend, Mary Lee Warrick.
Kind and hospitable, she created a home for her family and for the many friends and visiting relatives. Later in life she worked full-time in retail while effortlessly keeping home and family rolling along. She and Paul were able to travel for many years and once settled in Yuma, Arizona, enjoyed short jaunts throughout the northwest during the summer months as snowbirds.
Millicent was a loyal wife, mother, sister, friend, and mentor. An avid card player she loved her bridge games and showed no mercy when playing with family. She already is missed by all who were fortunate enough to experience some of life with Millicent.
