Memories and Condolences
for Robert Miller

Not sure what to say?





Folks, days, months and years pass by but the memories of one near and dear never passes by without thought of the person we lost. I worked with Bob and could never have asked for a more compassionate person who always ensured the people around him were safe and healthy. May his soul rest in peace.

To the members of the Miller family I would like to commend you for offering some of us, who worked with Bob at Norquay Technologies, to express our opinion about Bob. He was an outstanding human benign who treated everyone with respect and dignity. I had the pleasure of working with him for about 6 years and every moment of it was memorable since challenges were one too many to mention. However, with Bob around, no challenge was too big and we always came through our challenges as a team. I still continue to provide services to people in the manufacturing area of chemicals and always use the work ethics of Bob as an example to educate the younger generations.
May his soul rest in peace
