Mildred Petrowski, fondly known as Millie to her loved ones, passed away at Carolina East Medical Center in New Bern on June 21, 2024. She was born on September 20, 1948.
Millie lived a life that was nothing short of extraordinary. She will always be remembered as one of the civilians who bravely refueled an F-18 Mid Air heading to the Ronald Reagan in Japan. Her adventurous spirit and Bedazzled personality shone brightly wherever she went.
Among her many interests, Millie had a love for hibiscus flowers, and sunflowers, finding joy and solace in their vibrant beauty. She was a dedicated member of the Beaufort congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses. She held firm to her belief in a new system and a perfect life, now peacefully asleep while awaiting her resurrection on earth.
