I send prayers of comfort and love to the family, especially Patricia. Bob was such a bright, interesting, inquisitive, kind man. I am honored to have met him and to have been his sister in law. Linda Miller in Louisville, KY
I remember Mr. Miller well as his family were neighbors and he worked with my Father. I recall he and his son, David, building model rockets (Engineers, go figure) and being heavily involved in the Boy Scouts. He always treated me like one of his boys.
“Fair Winds and Following Seas”
Our prayers go out to you, Pat, and the Boys and their children and grand-children. I know that this can be an extremely difficult time. We hope that you can rest assured in the fact that Bob is now home with his Father in Heaven and at peace.
I always admired Bob for the talent that he had with capturing the “life” in the paintings that he produced. He will be greatly missed. To my brother Bob, God speed. Love to all.
All of us in Michigan who love you send our thoughts and prayers to you. Even though we all understand the Circle of Life, bearing the loss of a dear one is a very hard thing. We are with you in spirit.
Losing a loved one is a heartbreaking journey. Please know your Oregon family sends love and heartfelt condolences. I will always remember how kind Pop Pop Miller was to my children when my own Dad passed away. The pride and love he felt for his family was so very obvious when Meredith and Christopher married a few years ago in Nashville. I remember tears of joy in his eyes and the love in his heart when he and Nana stood to represent the longest married couple in the room at the reception. I pray for strength to sustain the family, afterall…..another guardian angel is now on duty. With love,….. Bear
We are so sorry for your loss. May the “God of all comfort” be with you during your difficult days ahead. 2 Corinthians 1:3,4.
Dearest Pat and Family:
Louis and I were so sad to hear about Bob’s passing. He will always be in our hearts. It was our fortune to call him “friend”. He will be missed. All of you are in our thoughts and prayers. May the Good Lord Bless and Keep You and hold you in the palm of His Mighty Hand.
With our love and sympathy,
Mifi and Louis Mixon
Pat, Jim and I will miss Bob at lunch bunch. We always love talking to the both of you. Just know you are in our prayers. Love, Pat and Jim Hester
I just read in the h2u bulletin that Bob had passed. I would surely have come to the visitation if I’d known. Pat, you took care of him well. I hope your children are a comfort to you.
