Mildred Woeste

Mildred Ann Woeste (nee Sprauer) following a lengthy brave battle with heart disease, Millie, 87 years young, took her rightful place in heaven Monday evening, October 10, 2011. Millie was the 11th child born to George and Frances Sprauer, and enjoyed a very long and full life surviving all of them. Millie served our country in WWII in the Naval Service of the United States, was a member of the Catholic Order of Foresters, was a dedicated parishioner of St. Mary's Parish, and was a life-long resident of Dayton. Millie is survived by her husband of 61 years, Victor C. Woeste and her 10 children: Larry (Mary Beth) Woeste, Tom (Marianne) Woeste, Steve (Sue) Woeste, Therese (Tim) Baker, Bernie (Ann) Woeste, Mark (Connie) Woeste, Rita Woeste, Martha (Tom) Tangeman, Jerry (Laura) Woeste, and Jim (Stephanie) Woeste. She also leaves behind 20 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren. We will all treasure our beautiful afghans she lovingly crocheted over the years, and memories of her many wonderful baked goods. Viewing from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. Thursday, October 13, Westbrock Funeral Home on Wayne Avenue. Additional viewing at 10:00 a.m. prior to Mass of Christian Burial at 11:00 a.m. Friday morning at St. Mary's Church, 523 Xenia Avenue, Dayton. Many thanks for the care she received from the staffs at both 10 Wilmington Place and Sanctuary. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to St. Mary Church or the American Heart Association.
