Mildred ("Millie") Wright-Brown 1927 - 2018

Angels Camp, CA...Mildred ("Millie") Wright-Brown, (March 15, 1927-August 28, 2018) Mildred ("Millie") Therese Wright-Brown, 91, passed away peacefully at home in Angels Camp, CA on August 28 with two of her sons, Kelly and Darrell at her side. She was born on March 15, 1927 in Flint, MI to Dennis and Agnes Murphy, and was the sixth of ten children.




Millie went to St Michael's in Flint for grades 1-12, received her B.S. from Michigan State, and her M.S. from USC in Physical Therapy. She married Henry Wright in 1952 and had four children, Kelly, Palmer, Darrell, and Shauna. As a widow Millie married William Brown (1926-2006) in 1996. Millie raised her children in Orinda, CA, worked as a Physical Therapist for seven years in Berkeley, CA and 19 years in Angels Camp. She was a Third Order Carmelite, member of the Italian Catholic Federation, and choir member at St Patrick's Catholic Church in Angels Camp, as was her late husband Bill. Millie also had a tender devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Infant Jesus of Prague and to the Blessed Virgin Mary, especially as the Immaculate Heart of Mary of Our Lady of Fatima. She was also devoted to the Holy Rosary, which she prayed every day, preferably along with her children when they were with her. She strongly believed that "the family that prays together, stays together."

Millie is survived by her brother Dennis J Murphy, her four children, Kelly Wright, Dr Palmer Wright, Darrell Wright, and Dr Shauna Wright-Chase; four grandchildren: Kelly Wright, Jr., Marshall Wright, Kendall Chase, and Owen Chase; three step-children: Patricia Brown-Johnston, Nancy Brown, and Robert Brown; and twenty-three nieces and nephews.

Funeral Mass will be Saturday, September 8 at 11:00 a.m. at St Patrick's in Angels Camp, and the Rosary September 7 at 6:00 p.m. at Angels Memorial Chapel, just down the street from the church, with viewing for those who wish to see Millie for the last time. Burial will be at St Patrick's Catholic Cemetery on Church Street in Murphys after the funeral, followed by a social reception at the nearby church hall.

Memorial contributions can be made to St Patrick's Catholic Church or to Angels Memorial Chapel either directly or through the family.
