Seymour
Mrs. Mildred Ann Daab, 95, of Seymour, passed away Sunday, March 5, 2017, at the Lutheran Community Home in Seymour.
Born Sept. 8, 1921, in Jonesville,, she was the daughter of Louis and Emelia (Schuette) Price.
Warren and Mildred were married at St. Paul Lutheran Church parsonage, Jonesville, by the Rev. Hoferkamp on Dec. 6, 1941, the evening before the attack on Pearl Harbor. They often told how the reception that Sunday was not a celebration of joy, but of sadness.
Warren and Mildred loved to travel and had been to nearly every state. They loved country music, the Grand Old Opry and Renfro Valley. Mildred’s last trip was to Atlanta in 2010 at the age of 89. She very much enjoyed the gathering with fellow friends from Jonesville, as they were called the Jonesville Belle’s.
She stayed very active as she worked for Arvin’s Industry and Cummins Engine Company during World War II. She then spent some time with Excello Shirt Factory and the Spraytown Grocery. She and Warren even helped take care of the local Spraytown Cemetery. Her greatest accomplishment was being a homemaker. She loved her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Mrs. Daab was a member of St. Peter Lutheran Church in Waymansville and a member of the Ladies Aide.
She is survived by her children, Diana (Ronald) Toburen, Bonita (Jerry) Thompson, Louis “Bud” (Bonnie) Daab; grandchildren, Brian (Sondra) Toburen, Jeff (Kathy) Toburen, Angela (Dave) Strain, Tena Sears, Aaron Thompson, Amy (Murl) Robinson and JeanAnn (Shawn) Thomas; great-grandchildren, Quintin Zornes, Michael Toburen, Conner Sears, Tristan Robinson and Cooper Robinson; 10 step-great-grandchildren; brother, Louis Price Jr.; and sister, Bernice (Kenneth) Arnholt.
