WATERFORD — Jeffery B. Millett, 63, went to heaven on Christmas Eve, December 24, 2012. Born in Norway on December 14, 1949, he was a son of Chester L. and Barbara E. (Trimback) Millett. He attended Waterford Memorial School and graduated from Oxford Hills High School. He married Sonja C. (Olson) Millett on January 8, 1972. He served in the U.S. Air Force and returned home in 1973.

He worked at Wilner Wood Products of Norway, Sampson’s Grocery Store of South Paris, the A.G. Grocery Store of Bridgton, and Food City of Bridgton. He semi-retired in 2012, along with working part-time at Havoc Fireworks, of South Paris.

His greatest passions were his children and grandchildren. Family was everything.

He was an avid sports fan; his favorite teams were the Oakland Raiders and the Boston Red Sox. Over the years, he liked to bowl, loved to ice fish, was very good at “whooping” people at cribbage, and watching his children and grandchildren’s various activities. He was their biggest fan. He enjoyed all the time he spent with his brother Fred, especially lately delivering his famous apple pies. He was his granddaughter Jade’s plowing companion.

Mr. Millett is survived by his daughter, Jennifer Morin and her husband Yvon; daughter, Jessica Richards; daughter, Melody Millett; grandchildren, Zack Morin and partner Timothy Brillant, Jade Morin, Cameron Richards Jr., Thomas Richards and Allyson Richards; his brother, Fred Millett and his wife Milly Millett; his companion, Sonja Millett and many other loving family members. He was predeceased by his parents and sister, Sandra Springer.

A celebration of life was held at the North Waterford Congregational Church on Sunday, December 30, followed by a reception in the church vestry. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Stoneham Rescue Service, P.O. 42, Stoneham, ME 04231. Arrangements under the care of Oxford Hills and Weston Funeral Services, 1037 Main St., Oxford.
