Mavis Irene Daggett
1923-2018
Our mother, Mavis Irene Daggett, a
resident of Cottage Grove, passed away
surrounded by many in her family on
June 2 nd , 2018 at 95 years old. She was
born in Herrin, Ill and was preceded in
death by her beloved husband of 60 years,
George Edward Daggett. Th e three of
us kids (listed below), along with the 11
grandchildren and 21 great grandchildren were honored to be
a member of her family. She served almost 60 years as a pastor’s
wife in California and Oregon (including Cottage Grove). She
had fond memories of Cottage Grove and moved back here
in 2004 aft er George passed away. She spent her last 4 years at
Middlefi eld Oaks Assisted Living in CG.
Mom loved Jesus and had a very personal relationship with
Him. Knowing the almighty God, serving Him was her life’s
goal. She taught us about loving others, forgiveness and serv-
anthood through her Godly example. Mom certainly was not
exempt from adversity in this life, but her legacy was how she
responded to it. She taught us to draw closer to God rather than
turn away from God.
We, and all her family, would like to thank many of the staff
at Middlefi eld Oaks, Cottage Grove Hospital and Sacred Heart
Hospice for the excellent care - and going the extra mile for her
during the last season of her life.
We all rejoice that she has reached her heavenly home.
We love you mom and will miss you dearly,
Your kids – Duane, Judy and Lloyd
