Great person! Kept family in line, especially her husband George. Gave us Robida kids cool aid in metal colorful cups!

So saddened by Aunt Miller's passing. There many wonderful memories growing up next to the Metz's. One I often recall is sitting Aunt Miller's kitchen drinking kool-aid out the colorful metal cups and it always so cold, too. Rest in Peace. Love, Don & Mary.
