For over fifty years Mrs. Miller has been a faithful and devoted member of the Christian church, and was a grand, good woman, ever rendering a helping hand to those about her. She possessed a kind disposition and had a smile and friendly word for all. She was devoted to her family and friends, who will ever cherish her memory. The sorrowing children who survive will have the deep sympathy of the community.
