I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to the entire Miller Family, especially those with whom I had the pleasure of working with as their Music Director when they attended Reading High Senior School. Having the contact of not only the students, but also the parents, had always been a very memorable part of my life.
It has been my pleasure to have had this wonderful association with so many members of this family, not only in the past but at the present time. I appreciate all you have done to make my life a worthwhile experience.
God bless you all and may you always cherish the memories of your Father. He will be missed but never forgotten.
My deepest sympathy to the Miller family. Dick and I have known each other for many years. He will be missed.
I am so sorry for your loss. May you find strength in family and friends to get through this hard time.
Our sincere sympathy to your family. He was a good man and will be missed.
Mrs. Miller and the entire Miller family,
Our deepest sympathy to you on the passing of Mr. Miller. I remember him well from the neighborhood, and he was always just the nicest man. I know you have fond memories of him, and he will live on in the hearts of many. Our love and sympathy, Fred and Karen Moreadith
