Mart Denton Miller of Camp Verde passed away on October 16, 2017.
She was born the youngest of five children to Firm Ancil Denton and
Katherine England Denton on October 9, 1925 in Indiana. Her family
moved to Portland, Oregon where Mart received her primary education.
Her family were avid horsemen and moved to Nevada where they ranched
during Mart’s high school years. She returned to the Northwest where
she received her Nursing Degree in Washington State. As she was
graduating, the Korean War started and she and many of her
classmates joined the service as 2nd Lieutenants. Mart was a flight
nurse doing air evacuation of the wounded until the end of the war.

Prior to her retirement in 1991, Mart was employed by Samaritan
Health System for 26 years. She retired as a Clinical Nursing
Administrator. Mart’s first love was the Operating Room where she
worked and supervised for 20 years of her career.

She was preceded in death by her parents, brother and sisters.

Mart leaves behind her second family of 45 years who she loved very
much, Janis Watts and Shelley K. Watts.

At Mart’s request, there will be no service. To honor Mart’s memory
we request donations to a no-kill animal shelter of your choice.
