At 93 years of age, Mildred Zeller, our beautiful mother, mother-in law, grandmother and great-grandmother quietly passed January 29, 2013. There is a quiet peace and tender sadness that surrounds her family as we say goodbye to this remarkable woman.

Mildred (Mickey) was born November 15, 1919 in Hazen, AR. She moved to Detroit, MI as a young woman to work. There she met the love of her life. Mickey married the love of her life, Raymond Koval Zeller, May 17, 1941. They were married 64 years.
Together they had two children, Barbara Louise (Garry) Seizert of Warren, MI and Raymond James (Paulette) Zeller of Kaysville, UT. She dearly loved her five grandchildren, Garry Seizert, Steve Seizert, Patricia Mande (Vincent), Christine Krstich (Rick) and Mark Seizert (Jacinda). Her great-grandchildren, Kelsey Seizert, Nicholas Krstich, Martino Mande and Koltin Krstich, were added blessings to Mickey and Ray.
She was preceded in death by her parents and all her brothers and sisters, except for her dear sister, Fay Fortune. Fay shared her days with Mom at Thornton Manor in Lansing. Mickey and Ray had a summer home for many years in Harpers Ferry. Many happy memories were provided there for the entire family.
