LaRue Milhollan, as she was known by most, was born on August 21, 1923 in Washington, PA, the daughter of Hugh H. and Mary Kunselman Turner.  On October 27, 1940 she married the late Thomas R. Milhollan and to that union were 3 children, Thomas H., Gloria Sue and Jackson Milhollan.

As a very active member of society, she was a member of West Washington United Methodist Church, served as treasurer of the United Methodist Women, and was also a member of the Washington County Historical Society.

By today's standards LaRue would have been called a domestic engineer as opposed to a homemaker.  Her husband and children were her life.  Her goal was to ensure that her children were the very best they could be.  She dedicated her life to raising productive and responsible individuals who could be proud of themselves.  She provided them with love, guidance, discipline and a sense of purpose.  All while maintaining an immaculate household and enabling her husband to concentrate on his business and philanthropic work.

It is only fitting and appropriate a fund should be established in her name to support the 'Mother's Fund' since she was the quintessence of motherhood.
