We are so saddened that we no longer have our dear Sister Miller physically in our midst’s. Her love for Jehovah and for the truth was evident by the way she lived her life. Iam thankful for all the times she encouraged me.
We will truly miss her presence
We love you both very much, and we send our condolences. We can’t wait to meet her in the new system. Revelation 21:4,5
We extend our deepest sympathy. She was a faithful sister and always expressed her love for Jehovah. Bennie & I would see her periodically in the grocery store & she was always positive. She will be missed.
Dear Miller family … you all had such an impact on me as I watched your family … I would visit your hall as a child when we would visit my Aunt Evelyn … and I would think to myself what a spiritual family and how wonderful it must be to have both your parents in the truth … your Mom was always kind and would talk to everyone even children … her faith when Danny died really impressed me I’ve never forgot him or her , he was truly a fine young person and she set such a good example on how to lean on Jehovah with all her heart . Joe sent me the link to her memorial and I wouldn’t take anything for getting to see all the pictures and hear about her spiritual legacy… y’all were truly blessed to have had such beautiful spiritual parents . I love you all and look forward to getting to know each one of you and help welcome both your parents back ! With love Terri Drewery Wallace Stephenson ( I lost my first husband Jay in death and have remarried Sammy Stephenson … it’s been a real blessing… again much love to you all !
So good hearing from you Terri, Your very sweet and kind words are so encouraging! So glad you are doing good!!
Love ya,
Sheree

Sheree Zimmerman
Grace was a beautiful and very encouraging friend to me. Love her and will miss her. Can’t wait to see her again ????
Dear Sheree’, Doug and David, we were so sorry to hear about your Mom passIng away. I have such good memories of spending time with the family when I was young and Grace was always the sweetest. Even though I moved to another state many, many years ago I still heard how faithful she continued to be. You are all in our prayers. Love, Fran and Rick Lohnes
I am so sorry you have to experience this.
Growing up in her Kingdom Hall she was a bright light that drew me all the time, always had time to discuss something from the Meetings or that I had read in the Bible. Her experiences were fascinating and the way she told them made me feel I was there too. My favorite is her experience of going to jail for preaching. I asked weren’t you scared? She replied with No we were there singing and we knew Jehovah was with us.
She was always positive and so sweet and you felt refreshed after visiting with her.
A bright light has gone out but not for long, not for long.
Love you guys,
Kurt & DeeDee Revia
Thank much for telling us this excellent experience. It warms our hearts to know that

The Miller family
Grace was my grandma’s (Sister Jean Shivers) best friend. I grew up going to visit her at the furniture store. I looked forward to seeing her when I attended services at the Kingdom Hall with my grandma. She was like another grandmother to me. She’ll be greatly missed!
Thank you Lauren for your warm and kind expressions. I recall when our family first met your Grandmother Jean Shivers. Jean’s appreciation for spiritual truths motivated her to accompany our family to the Kingdom Hall that very day. My mom truly loved Jean, Sheila you and also Jean’s mom Vera Dowling (sp?) Your family was apart of our family. We likewise are sorry for your loss of Jean recently. Let us all be encouraged by the hope that Jesus laid out for us when he said as recorded in John 5:28,29
” …that the hour is coming when there will be a resurrection of all in the memorial tombs..
Warm love and greetings from Doug and Sherry Miller

I’m so sorry Doug Sherry and family to hear about your loss. Some May say she lived a long life, but even in your 90s it’s just a drop in the bucket compared to everlasting life. Love you all
Sorry for your loss, Doug. What a powerful legacy! I now know one source of your exemplary spiritual strength. Be well my brother and friend.
Gracie Miller—a dear friend to every age group who knew her!! She was also a close friend of Jehovah and consulted Jehovah throughout her life. She was a bestie friend to my mother, Peggy Bayley. Both gals popular before death and just as popular at the Resurrection! These gals will be back and we wake up everyday with that hope. So thankful we know what Jehovah has planned for us. Until that promised event please accept my condolences in the loss of your sweet mother.
Sister Miller always made me feel loved and valued. Her love for our Father Jehovah fueled her fire for love of neighbors. She will always be in my heart as a wonderful modern-day example of a true worshiper of Jehovah God. Love you always! Friend & Sister, Carol
Hi Carol,

Love ya,

Let us all draw comfort from the hope about the future as the Bible reveals, a hope that was held dearly by both your grandmother and her sister your “dear sweet Great Aunt Grace”
