Dorothy Ann McMillian

Dorothy Ann “Dot Mack” McMillian passed away peacefully at her home in Meherrin, Virginia, on October 2, 2023. She was born on February 8, 1956 in Illinois, to Frederick and Dorothy Fischer. She married early in life to Charles McMillian, them having three children together before divorcing. Having left school to begin motherhood, Dorothy earned her G.E.D., and continued to be a self-driven learner throughout her life. She worked at Longwood University for over 25 years, retiring as a Database Administrator in 2016. In addition to this, she was co-founder of The Women of The Round Table, a local group whose motto of “Up To You, Down To You” lives on in her memory.
In addition to her parents, Dot was predeceased by her brother Raymond Fischer, and is survived by her children, Raven McMillian of Schuyler, Michelle McMillian (Morgan Vitale) of Clarksville, and Corinne Hymer (Matt) of Abilene; as well as her grandchildren, Rowan, Blake, and River McMillian, and grandson David Hymer. She is also survived by a brother, Robert (Linda) Fischer, sister, Lea (Kevin) Owens; as well as a multitude of loving sisters-, and brothers-in-law, cousins, nieces, and nephews, and many others whom she treated and loved as family. May her laughter forever echo.
