He was the second child of William B. and Mary (Ziegler) Miller. In 1885 the Miller family came to the state of Nebraska, settling on a farm south of Grafton where Mr. Miller grew to manhood. After reaching the age of 21, he set out upon his career, working for a short time as a farm hand. June 6, 1907, he was united in marriage to Miss Bessie A. Brower. The wedding took place at the Brower home near Fairmont. Choosing the vocation of farming, they started housekeeping on a farm near Geneva. With the exception of two years spent near Oshkosh, Neb., all of their more than 43 years of married life were lived around Geneva. They resided on their present farm home 30 years. Three children came to bless this union: Mrs. Merle Schupbach, Mrs. Mildred Farmer and Howard Miller, all of whom, with their mother were at Mr. Miller's bedside when the passing moment came. Mr. Miller was possessed of great energy, both physical and intellectual. Working body and mind, he carried forward a program of high caliber in his profession. Along with fine success as a farmer, he conducted a business of livestock buying and managed the Geneva Sale Barn 11 years. Along with his other activities, Mr. Miller was a member of the Geneva Congregational church and the Knights of Pythias lodge of Milligan. As we count the years of Mr. Miller's life, we feel he should have remained longer among us. Submitting to surgery October 15, 1949, he later consulted the Mayo clinic. Finding his malady greater than the power of science could heal; he did not resist the inevitable but lived calmly with an interest in his work to the very last. He entered the Geneva General hospital May 7, where he passed away at 5:30 p. m. Wednesday, June 14, 1950, at the age of 65 years, 10 months and 18 days. Counting his years, we would say his life had not reached the accustomed length. But counting his successes and his contribution to his day, we must say he more than made up for the years he was not permitted to live. Besides Mrs. Miller and the children, he leaves behind two brothers and two sisters: James Miller of Los Angeles, Cal., Clarence Miller of Lincoln, Mrs. Lottie Witter of Brush, Col., and Mrs. Lulu Hodgett of Kewanee, Ill. He also leaves six grandchildren and a large circle of friends. Funeral services were held Friday, June 16, 1950, at the Geneva Congregational church with Rev. William G. Bohi officiating. Music was furnished by a male quartet consisting of Vaughn Fulton, C. M. Humphrey, Ralph Reemts and Wallace Swanson, with Mrs. Willard H. Foster at the organ. Pallbearers were John Brooke, Fred Fisher, Leslie McPeck, Rex Shaner, John Taylor and Bernard Weiss. Interment was in the Geneva cemetery. The Nebraska Signal July 22nd,1950 page 1.
