Killian and wife Leslie, Heather J. Uhlmann and husband Nathan, and Laurie A. Killian; grandchildren, Brandon Killian, Charlotte Uhlmann, and Evan Uhlmann; aunt and godmother, Madelene Finor; her father-in-law, Harry E. Killian; and her pet English Springer Spaniel, Rip. She was preceded in death by her devoted mother-in-law, Clara Killian.
Mass of Christian Burial will be offered at 11 am on Wednesday, August 21, 2013, at St. Paul’s R.C. Church, 209 Washington Street, Delaware City, DE.
The family asks that everyone give their children and grandchildren an extra hug each day to honor Mickie’s memory. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the charity of the donor’s choice.
