Carl Miller Obituary

Carl Levier Miller, 85, passed away March 8th, 2011 with his family by his side. Carl was born December 18, 1925 in Seattle, Washington to Carl and Laura Miller.

Carl married his wife Billie Marie Myles on March 19, 1963 in Corpus Christi, Texas. Carl, Billie, and their children moved to Yuma in 1975 and opened Foothills Plumbing. He was well-known in the community as a hard-working and honest man. He was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses and he served his God Jehovah faithfully for over 40 years.

Carl is survived by his loving wife of 48 years, Billie; his daughters, Vicki Dart (John), Ginger Miller, Laura Spatig (Steve), and Melissa Shaffer (Michael); son, Michael Miller (Tawnee); his cherished friend and granddaughter Jessica Marrufo, along with 13 other beloved grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren.

Carl will be remembered by the many who loved him for his generosity, kindness, and unending love. Carl was well-known for his sense of humor, and he kept it to the very end.

His family wishes to thank the many friends for their help and love, and especially Hospice of Yuma, for their continual support.

A memorial service will be held Saturday, March 19, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, 1051 S. Ave A.
The family asks that a donation be made to Hospice of Yuma in lieu of flowers. Please sign the guestbook at www.yumasun.com/obituaries
