SARATOGA SPRINGS — Mildred E. Dann, 86, formerly of Nineveh and Greene, was carried by the angels into God’s presence on August 4 from Wesley Health Care Center in Saratoga Springs.
She was born on January 13, 1928 in Binghamton to the late Lewis I. and Laura J. Livermore. Mildred attended Harpursville Schools where she met and later married her high school sweetheart, G. Merlin Dann on October 20, 1946.
After raising their family of four together in Greene, they later moved to Nineveh, where they lived for 25 years.
Mildred worked for various companies in the Binghamton area. Her most rewarding and fulfilling career was being a caregiver to the elderly. She had a heart of compassion for helping those in need as a nurse’s aide in nursing homes and in private care.
Mildred was a member of the Highland Park Alliance Church in Greene for many years and later attended the Circle Drive Alliance Church in Sidney.
Mildred moved to the Capital District nine years ago and resided at the McAuley Living Residence in Albany and later moved to Saratoga Springs, where she spent her remaining years near her daughter, Laurie.
The family would like to express their thanks to all the people who have loved and cared for “Millie” over those nine years.
Mildred cherished all the times that she was able to spend with family. Her faith in God and love for her family are her legacy. Even though her journey on earth has ended, for Mildred, there are no endings only endless beginnings with God in heaven.
Mildred was predeceased by Merlin, her husband of 57 years; sisters and brother-in-laws, Dorothy (Lynn) Huntley, Edna (Richard) Pratt, Francis (Harold) Smith; brother and sister-in-law, Charles (Audrey) Livermore; a sister, Mary Livermore; infant sister, Charlotte Livermore; brother, Russell I.
