Mildred B. (Butko) Kehs, 95, of Perkiomenville, passed away on Thursday, May 23, 2024 at LifeQuest Nursing Center. She was the loving wife of the late James H. Kehs, Jr. with whom she shared 43 years of marriage before his passing in 1994.

Mildred was a tire builder for Firestone & Rubber Co. and retired in 1991 from Occidental Chemical Corp. as a fork lift driver. She was a member of East Greenville Ladies Auxiliary and a former member of Curves and Workout Plus in Quakertown.
She enjoyed mowing the farm, wild animals and traveling with her daughter; she was lucky enough to visit every lighthouse on the East Coast. Most importantly, she loved her family and cherished every moment she spent with them.
