      A Memorial Service for Mildred “Milly” Mabbett Moss will be held on Saturday, August 20 at 2 PM in the First United Methodist Church in Quitman. Milly passed away in Bridgeville, PA on December 15, 2015 at age 92 from complications from a stroke.

      Milly was born and raised in Quitman. She was the daughter of Henry Frink Mabbett and Blanche Leigh Chapman Mabbett. She attended Georgia State College for Women in Milledgeville. During World War II, she worked as a clerk typist for the War Department. At war's end, she volunteered for an administrative position in the military occupation of Japan. It was there that she met her future husband, Lon Harold Moss.

      Milly and Harold raised their two sons in the Washington, DC area and lived in Paris, France for five years when Harold held a position at the American embassy. After Harold’s retirement, they lived for nearly 25 years in Cross Junction, VA. In 2001, Milly and Harold moved to Washington County, PA to be close to family. Harold passed away in 2004.

      She is survived by two sons, Sheldon Moss of Evening Shade, AR and Douglas Moss of Reno, NV, and two grandchildren, Georgina Leigh Moss of Pittsburgh, PA and Joseph Jordan Moss of Torrance, CA. She was preceded in death by two brothers and a sister: Henry Frink Mabbett, Jr. who died in infancy, Dr. Joseph Sheldon Mabbett who died in 1974, and Blanche Mabbett Ferguson who died in 1984.

      She will be laid to rest in Oak Hill Cemetery in Quitman beside her husband and alongside her parents, sister and brothers.
