"I loved life but left this mortal existence on May 23, 2016. I was born June 12, 1919 to Karl Q. Cannon and Mary Frances (Mamie) Silver Cannon.
My parents and two sisters, Helen C. Nabuam and Rebecca C. Engles, preceded me in death as did my husband Harold G. (Hack) Miller (July 31, 1998), a grandson Brett Miller, and great-grandson Chase Daniel Elggren.
I graduated from the University of Utah with a B.S. degree. I was a member of Delta Delta Delta sorority, Pom Club, Spurs, and served on the Apportionment Board. While there I worked as a secretary at the U. of U. Bureau of Mines, enjoyed volunteering at the Symphony Guild, Theater Guild, and as a Pink Lady.
I was rescued from a fall on a ski slope at Alta on November 30, 1940 by Hack Miller and married him on September 11, 1944 in the Manti Temple. He was on a short leave from the US Army at the time.
I enjoyed my association with the GG Gourmet Group, the Darling Girls, and the Great Books Group. These women were such dear friends. I served an L.D.S. mission in New York City at the Visitors Center with my husband where he served as the director.
We welcomed and loved four sons into our family. Michael C. Miller (Suzanne), Scott C. Miller (Karol Jean), Corey A. Miller (Nancy), and Clark C. Miller. We have 12 grandchildren and 26 great-grandchildren. I loved them very much.
To relatives and friends I say a fond farewell.
Instead of flowers, please donate to the charity of your choice ".

Barbara was a voracious reader, had a zest for life, was opinionated, organized, feisty, and learned. She was involved in her family's lives and was sweet, sassy, and loving. We will miss her!

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, May 28, 2016 in the Wasatch Lawn Mortuary Chapel, 3401 South Highland Drive (1450 East), East Millcreek. Friends may visit prior from 9:30-10:45 a.m.
Interment at the Salt Lake City Cemetery.
