She was preceded in death by her husband of 49 years, Lloyd Miller; her sister, Pauline Bryant and a brother, Cecil Jones.

Mrs. Miller was born June 2, 1927, in Caldwell, Idaho to Silas Jones and Ruth (Felty) Jones. As a young girl she was saved on August 21, 1941, at a revival at Hazel Dell Missionary Baptist Church. She was baptized and was a member of that church upon her death. After graduating, she taught at Hazel Dell Country School from 1945-1946 before getting married to Lloyd Miller on Sept. 12, 1948. While her husband, family and church were always first in her life, her family will tell you she had a soft spot for Roy Rogers and collected many mementos about the western cowboy singer.

Always a homemaker, she also spent several years working at Patton Rexall Drug Store in Lamar and was an Avon representative for a few years.
