After a long and well lived life, Mary Louise (Owen) Mille, age 86, of Alliance, passed away peacefully in her sleep Sunday, October 19. She was a loving, caring mother and grandmother. She was born January 30, 1928, in Alliance, Ohio, to Earl and Ida (Goddard) Owen Hardesty who preceded her in death, as well as her brothers, Robert and Melvin Owen.

She was married to Emil Mille for 53 years until his death in 2005. Their former home in Alliance in part was donated to and is now the site of the Beech Creek Botanical Gardens. She was delighted with the results and enjoyed visiting the butterfly house with her grandchildren. She was a resident at Copeland Oaks after Emil died.
Survivors include her children, Debbie (Lance Warner) Mille of Rossford, Ohio, Eric (Christine) Mille of Royal Palm Beach, Florida, and Cathy Mille of Fort Sumner, New Mexico; five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
