Scott A. Miller Obituary

We thank you for what you gave and pray god is taking care of you, I hope to carry on your legacy with me as I join the service.

Good bless PVT Miller and his friends and family. Thank you for his service. I stop at the Military graves and say thank you.

Ran into Bob and Susie recently. Karen, Brian and I knew Scott from the time he was just a youngster, playing sports with our son from then through high-school. I think of Scott from time to time and stop by visit him at his resting place. I never know what might spark the thought. I have a few friends at the veterans cemetery in Casper. I can't imagine the loss that his family and girl Anita felt at his loss, knowing how his loss affected me then and yet today. Regardless of politics that may affect our views, I am grateful for those that answer the call of our country and those that give all that they have. That was Scott.

I read the comments and kind words that have been written over time and it never ceases to amaze me how many wonderful, caring and patriotic people there are in this world. It's been 17 years since we lost our Scott. Most days it feels like yesterday. Thank you to all that have shared comments and condolences. It's means more than I can ever say.

Hello,
We realize that we are very late to express our deepest condolences, but we wanted to let your family and friends know that we will be sending Care Packages to deployed troops this month and several of these will be dedicated to your loved one. Each package will carry the name, photo and hometown of Scott A. Miller US Army Private.

We realize that this is a small tribute, but we do this with all respect and sincerity and we want you to know that it is made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals from across the American youth hockey community, their families and friends and others who support our mission.

We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you safe and strong.

Sincerely,
Charlie Gili & Family

Sitting at Casper Ortho. As an Army wife of a wounded vet and ex military member myself. I want to say thank you to your family and Pvt Miller for his bravery and sacrifice. I promise I will not forget him or his fellow fallen.

While serving in Iraq together Scott and me worked side by side for a few months at a prison. He was always able to put a smile on my face. I remember having long conversations about life in general and how much we loved our families. Scott was proud of where he came from and really just enjoyed life. I wear a bracelet for you everyday my friend. God Bless you.

Not a day goes by i don't think about you. I'll always remember the great times we shared together while serving in Iraq. I gave your mom a hug just like you asked. I know i'll see you again one day to show me the ropes on the other side. I miss you buddy, nate

To the family of Pvt. Scott A. Miller:
Scott gave the ultimate sacrifice and will be held in the hearts of Americans forever. I cannot and will not let our fallen heroes be forgotten. My deepest sympathy to you. "Some gave all."

As the second year approaches, I am thinking and praying for your family. We met at the services for Scott and Brian in WA. Our hearts are sad and heavy as we continue to miss our HEROES.
God be with you all.

The Wind on The Downs

“I like to think of you as brown and tall,
As strong and living as you used to be,
In khaki tunic, Sam Brown belt and all,
And standing there and laughing down at me.
Because they tell me, dear, that you are dead,
Because I can no longer see your face,
You have not died, it is not true, instead
You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe;
I hear you laughing as you used to do,
Yet loving all the things I think of you;
And knowing you are happy, should I grieve?
You follow and are watchful where I go.”

(Written by Marian Allen during World War l )

Two lines that I wish you to keep near your heart…….

“You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe”


I did not know Scott, but I am remembering
his service. He is my hero. !

The Other Side

i'm over on the other side
where life and death softly divide.
left my skin and bones behind
now i'm over on the other side.

can you feel me there with you?
my breath is gone but i'm not through.
loved you then and i still do
from over on the other side.

i can fly. really fly.
below the earth ... all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.

it's good here on the other side.
the sweetest songs...the bluest skies.
thank you for the tears you cried
but it's good here on the other side.

i can fly. really fly. below the earth...all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side

the world is smaller than a needle's eye.
where life and death softly divide.
when you leave your skin and bones behind
i'll be waiting on the other side.

i can fly. really fly. below the earth ... all through the sky.
go tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.

Christmas 2007 is near, a time when one reflects on life and the people that pass through it. I have thought of Scott often, since learning of his death and attending his funeral earlier this year. And, looking at home movies of kids sports, Scott and my son played on many a team either with or against each other since T ball, I see Scott as a child and think of him again. Scott was always a fine person, and his family are no doubt proud of Scott and his choice to serve his country, although it would be preferrable that Scott still be with us. But to put that pride into perspective, the day Scott was laid to rest, with full military honors and the Governor of our state, and countless individuals in attendance,I was proud of our commuity for honoring Scott as he was, but I was very touched that so many cared to offer their respects to Scott and his family on that day. But, I was more proud that my family had known Scott and his family, and thank god that there are such good people in the world.

Scott was a fine young man, with many feeling his loss as our own. God bless Scottand those he left behind.

There is nothing that I can say or do to take away the pain or bring you peace in your time of sorrow, but I will offer you and your family my heart felt condolences. I also offer you my prayers that in time the pain will easy and the memories of your HERO will carry you through each day and night. I want to thank your HERO, for his/her selfless act of becoming a member of the armed forces, his/her willingness to defend the United States of America, all that we hold sacred and for the sacrifice that will forever be etched in the memories of all those who knew him/her. Though tears can never bring him/her back, we hope that our tears express our gratitude for the sacrifice that he/she made and our sorrow at his/her passing. I believe for every fallen HERO there is a star shining brightly up above to remind us of the precious gift we were given.

Your mission on earth is complete and you are now a member of GOD’s Heavenly armed forces. Stand down brave warrior and take your rightful place in Heaven with all the HEROES who have passed before.

I made a special promise to LE RON A. WILSON, a dear family friend who joined the Army with three other friends, one of whom is my son (Le Ron was killed in action on 07/06/07 at the age of 18) on the day he was laid to rest as I touched his coffin, that I would never forget him nor would I forget those that gave their lives for our country before him, with him and after him and so when I came across www.legacy.com, I thought what a great way to keep my promise to Le Ron, so I will continue to leave tributes in each guest book until the day there is no longer the need to leave these tributes to a FALLEN HERO.

REST IN PEACE, HERO, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!

A PROUD MARINE MOM

I went to basic training with Scott and we were in hold over together after basic after we decided not to go to airborne training. I was a good friend of Scott, i was in the PX to get a hair cut when i seen the picture of him, and i was devistated when i seen the picture. I am so proud of him. I remember when i was in 30th AG and we first met. Scott was in 2nd plt. and i was in 4th plt. we used to go out and sit on the bleachers and shine our boots and put in a dip. Those are the days that i wish i could come back to. I am so sorry for the family and i will miss him very much. He was my friend and commrade. I will miss him very much.

My heartfelt sympathy to the Miller family in the loss of Scott. I did not know Scott, but my heart is broken and I am saddened for your loss of such a fine young person and hero. May God bring you peace in your heart as you reflect on all the wonderful memories you hold so close. Please know that you are in my heart and prayers. My heart was touched by the many wonderful/beautiful things written about you and from the moving tribute. Scott you are my hero and you will NEVER be forgotten.
I send each of you a hug from the most inner part of my heart.
Love and Peace
Tom

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

I send My love and Sympathy to the Family and Many Friends of Scott when I heared the news and saw his face my heart shattered old memories from back in high school came to mind but then also thinking that it wasn't but three years ago when we walked across the stage to recive our deploma from the memories I have and that every one elso has Scott will never die, he will be remembered forever. god bless you and your family Scott keep them safe. To the Family My heart goes out to you. Scott was a great person with a kind heart and soul. Again I send my love and my condolences.

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there... I do not sleep.
I am the thousand winds that blow...
I am the diamond glints on snow...
I am the sunlight on ripened grain...
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you waken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of gentle birds in circling flight...
I am the soft star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry-
I am not there... I did not die...

..

God bless the family and friends of Scott.
You will all be in our prayers.
Thank you Scott for being such a brave hero.

To the Family and Friends of this Soldier:
I will stand in grief with this soldier's family to honor him. For every fallen HERO there is a bright star that shines in the evening sky to remind us of the cherished gift we were given – even if for too short a time.
My heart breaks again as I sign yet another guest book of another courageous young soldier who gave their life so selflessly. I wish I never found myself in a position to have to sign another guestbook for the rest of my life, but I promised Brent that neither he nor any like him would be forgotten and so I will continue until the day there is no longer the need.
We lost our son SFC Brent A. Adams on 12/1/05 and it seems like yesterday. I wish so badly there were things I could say to you right now to make the pain you are feeling go away, but I know first hand there simply are no words that will bring you the comfort and peace your heart aches for. Just know that you are not alone. My heart, thoughts, and prayers are with you all as you go through this tragedy moment by moment and as you mourn this loss.
We don't know each other, will probably never meet, but will forever be united in the loss of our Heroes. We have, unfortunately joined a group none of us wanted to join, an ever-growing group of families in this situation. May God grant you peace and strength to get through this and be able once again to smile at a memory rather than have only the tears that flow so easily now. To be so proud of your loved one and so saddened at the same time is a mix of emotions very difficult to deal with as our hearts both burst with pride and pain together.
I am sorry that I never knew your soldier personally. While they can never be replaced, neither will they ever be forgotten. You must trust that sometime, someday the loving memories you have will help to sustain you and help you go on. This courageous soldier will forever be your Angel watching over you all for the rest of your lives. It's what brings me some measure of peace and comfort and I hope it will you as well.
To his family and friends in pain, I offer this comfort: When you find yourself in that dark sorrowful place, think not only of how you will miss him, but instead recall the years, days, hours and minutes gifted to you by his presence. The one thing that cannot be taken from you is your wonderful memories that now will mean more than ever.
If you ever want to talk, I'm only an e:mail away and would love for you to tell me more about your Hero.
God Bless this soldier and family who gave all and God Bless legacy.com for setting up this site where families can so quickly share their condolences and prayers with others like themselves.

My heart goes out to the parents and family of this soldier not yet known to us but to many who he served with. I too am a mother of a fallen soldier. My son SPC Harry (Buck) Winkler III was killed on November 12, 2006 in Samarra, Iraq. It's so hard when we bury our children and I want to offer any emotional support I can. God has blessed me in this area and I'm here when and if you ever want to talk, vent or just share your memories. May God's healing love give you comfort and understanding now and in the days and weeks to come.

My sincere condolences to the family and friends of this brave soldier.
May you find comfort in your loving memories. All of America shares in your sorrow.
My flag flies in your honor.

you are my hero

As the mother of a son (my only child) who is enlisted in the Army, I want to send my condolences.

Know in your heart that you are a true hero and will never be forgotten. All gave some, some gave all. Rest in peace. You will be missed by everyone’s life you have touched.

To the family, as the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life’s routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family, friends, and all Americans for the sacrifice of one of your family members for our freedom. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. May you find comfort in the loving embrace of our Heavenly Father.
