She was born in East McKeesport on July 6, 1942, the only child of the late Theodore and Helen (Nastoff) Todorich.
Millicent lived a remarkably active, accomplished and spirited life, and throughout her life, she always embraced connections and new experiences. She was a graduate of East McKeesport High School. Alongside her late husband, Mario, Millicent was a business owner, helping establish the first Winky’s in Butler and owned the Dunkin’ Donuts in New Castle.

She served as the president of Butler Township Zoning Board for 15 years and contributed her time and leadership to the Visiting Nurses Board in Butler, as well as Butler and Westmoreland County Area of Aging organizations.
Millicent’s interests were diverse. She was a Tai Chi instructor and an accomplished fencer, participating in tournaments, demonstrating a lifelong appreciation for discipline and personal challenge. She even brought her talents to television, filming a cooking show in Canada and frequently traveled there with her young daughter for productions. Millicent’s life was a true blend of professional achievement, community involvement, athletic accomplishments and above all, dedication to her family. She was a nurturing and kind mother, wife and aunt.
She will be deeply missed by her beloved daughter, Ellie Sophia Christopher (James); sister-in-law, Lena Piccolino (Anthony); several nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews; and her two granddogs, FinnLee and Tempi.
