MILDRED ANN PEPITONE
"MILLIE" Mildred Ann Pepitone "Millie" was born September 20th, 1945 in Corning, California to Milton & Eula May. After years fighting a courageous battle with Parkinson's Disease, she passed away on September 30th, 2016 at the age of 71 years young. She was preceded in death by her brothers Robert May and Russell May. She is survived by her mother, Eula May, Father, Milton May, Son, Todd Sturgis, grandsons, Jacob Sturgis and Riley Sturgis, granddaughters, Katherine Sturgis and Elizabeth Sturgis. She was a wonderful Daughter, caring dedicated Mother, and cherished Grandmother. She attended local schools in Corning and graduated from Corning High School in 1963. She attended Chico State University and later worked for AT&T and Pacific Bell. She then spent 25 years working for Pacific Gas & Electric as a supervisor before retiring in 2007. After retiring, Millie loved to travel, especially cruises and she took quite a few. She donated extensively to the Parkinson's Foundation in Sacramento and enjoyed spending time with her friends at the Moose Lodge in West Sacramento. Millie moved to be closer to her mother, son, and grandchildren in the Corning and Chico areas in 2014. She loved to spend time with her grandchildren. They adored their "Mimi" and will miss her terribly. A day usually never went by where she didn't talk to her mother, Eula. She loved her very much and enjoyed spending time with her at her home in Corning. Millie was everything to her son, Todd. She was the most loving and giving mother ever. Her passing has left a huge hole in her family and friend's lives. She lived out her last few days under the loving care of Enloe Hospice and the staff at The Panama House in Chico. Her family would like to send a special thank you to Andrea White for being with her during her final days and for her incredible support of her mother and son. Her memorial service will be private and take place at a later date. Please share your memories and thoughts of Millie online atHallBrothersMortuary.com.
