Obituaries

Mildred, a long-time resident of Fremont, died Wednesday the 8th of March while under hospice care in her apartment at Brookdale Fremont. She was predeceased by her husband Don and oldest son Glen. She is survived by her daughter, Linda Flores and son, David Stransky as well as several grandchildren who live in the San Francisco Bay Area. She worked as an administrative assistant throughout her life across multiple industries and states, finally retiring in her early 70s. She actively supported her husband’s participation in several volunteer organizations like Kiwanis, Lions and the Serra Club - opening her home frequently for club meetings and traveling with him to regional and international conventions. She always spent her free time caring for pets and even when she felt that she was not capable of owning a pet, she would regularly feed the birds and squirrels around her apartment.

At Mildred’s request, a private family service was held and she will be laid to rest with her husband at Willamette National Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial gifts to continue support of animals through the ASPCA -https://secure.aspca.org/donate/memorial
