Mary Jean Weiss Milot was born on November 1, 1938 in Frederick, Oklahoma to Druscilla and Alva Doze. She married Phillip Weiss in 1958 and moved to Wichita Falls, Texas, where they raised three daughters. Mary was a dedicated mother and worked as a telephone operator, librarian, and Girl Scout Leader. Always at home in her kitchen, Mary loved to cook meals for family birthdays and holidays, and spent many summers canning vegetables from Phil’s garden. She was devoted to God, praising him with her strong alto voice during services and singing lullabies to her seven grandchildren and three great grandchildren. She was widowed in 2014 and married Huey Milot in 2016.
Mary passed away at age 85 March 29, 2024 surrounded by her loved ones. She is survived by husband Huey Milot, daughters Stacey Wilton, Lynda Phelps, Lori Viets, grandchildren Amanda Lillig, Mariah Friend, Rebekah Friend, Benjamin Wilton, Andriah Friend, Wyatt Viets, Weston Viets, and great grandchildren Sylvia Lillig, Sadie Lillig, and Noah Friend Nayak.
