Mildred A. Weigel, 78, of West Windsor, passed away at home on Monday, July 30, 2018. Born and raised in Princeton, Milly spent virtually her entire life in the Princeton area. After graduating from Princeton High School, she worked in the family business before embarking on a rewarding 42-year career as a tax preparer for H&R Block.
Milly loved animals and was a long-time supporter of Pet Rescue of Mercer County. She had a special place in her heart, compelling her to adopt several rescued dogs over the years.
Milly also loved Ireland and all things Irish, in homage to her dear departed mother, Helen (McHugh) Weigel, who immigrated to the United States from County Galway in the 1920s. Milly often told stories of her experiences growing up on Witherspoon Street, where her father, the late Charles Weigel, owned and operated Rockwood Dairy. Milly is also predeceased by her sister, Helen Leavitt.
Milly is survived by her cousins, Kathleen and William Kurtz of Lusby, Maryland, June and James Melvin, of Keymar, Maryland, Frederick (Fred) and Mariellen Otterbacher, of Crofton, Maryland, John and Leigh Otterbacher, of Edgewater, Maryland, and William and Carol Pascoe of Ocala, Florida, goddaughter, Charlotte Diane (Dee) Taylor Strauss, of King George, Virginia, and a group of very dear and cherished friends.
