Mary was born on April 6, 1937 in Cabot, PA to Lelen and Margaret (Snyder) Neupert. She married Donald A. Miley Sr. on September 8, 1958 at St. Luke’s Lutheran Church in Hannahstown, PA. They moved to Waukesha in 1967 where they raised their four children. Mary served for many years as a lunchtime supervisor at Whittier Elementary School and was beloved by generations of children that were under her charge. She was an active community volunteer in Waukesha County 4H clubs and Waukesha Public Schools PTO. She was a dedicated member of her local TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) chapter and formed lifelong friendships with fellow members that became her extended family.
