Miller, Henry
Henry R. Miller, 63, of Crivitz, passed away on April 7, 2017 in Green Bay. He was born on January 1, 1954 to Donald and Helen (Korntved) Miller in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin. On June 23, 2015, he married his special love, Diane Nikolas. Henry worked at Appleton Coated in Combined Locks as an electrician where he retired in 2014. Some of Henry's enjoyments in life included bluegrass music, festivals, fishing, road trips and adventures, and nature around him-especially his flying squirrels in the backyard. Above all, Henry enjoyed the company of family and friends. He fulfilled a goal of fishing with his sons in Canada, and this summer, he was able to share his love of fishing with his grandsons. Henry had the ability to strike up a conversation with anyone, make a new friend, and bring laughter to the room. He will be greatly missed and fondly remembered by all the people whose lives he touched.
Survivors include his wife, Diane; five children, Tina (Brian) Anker, Shawano, Donovan (Nicolette) Miller, Green Bay, Jonathan (Kyle Prellwitz) Miller, Green Bay, William Miller, Freedom, and Heather (Andrew Plucinski) Koeller, Milwaukee; four grandchildren, Jaxon Miller, Jaeger Miller, Alyssa Anker and Nikki Anker; his sister, Bette (Kurby) Hoffman; nieces and nephews, Sara (Paul) Boettcher and Shawn Hoffman.
Henry was preceded in death by his parents; former wife, Chris (Koeller) Miller; sister, Carol Zehren; and his brother, Peter Miller.

Dear Diane, Carl and I are so surprised and saddened by this loss of such a wonderful man as Henry. He truly loved people and life. He made everyone feel special! We're happy you two found each other and that he got to retire and enjoy the north country for at least a short while! You are in our thoughts and prayers. Whenever we remember Henry it will be with a grin! Very sincerely, Zoomie and Carl Hardtke

Henry was always happy when I saw him. When I saw him and Diane at a show I was happier. Henry got as excited as a little kid at Christmas to be at a summer bluegrass festival in Wisconsin. What a great guy, a great human and a great friend. We all wish you well along your way Henry..you'll be sadly missed this summer festival season.
