Ann Miller Obituary

Ann Miller

1922 - 2013 STOCKBRIDGE Ann Obanhein Miller (Nancy), 91, died Dec. 30, 2013, in Suffield, Conn., where she had resided for the past five years. Born in Stockbridge on Oct. 5, 1922, to John Adam and Cecilia (Devenny) Obanhein, she was a 1940 graduate of Williams High School. Nancy was the Chief Operator for the Stockbridge office of New England Telephone and Telegraph Company until her marriage in 1948 to Henry F. Miller, Jr. of Pittsfield. In 1967, she went to work for Berkshire Life Insurance Company, retiring in 1987 from Policyowners Services. She was predeceased by her parents, and by her brothers, John and William. Her husband of 31 years, Henry F. Miller, Jr., passed away in 1980. She leaves a brother, Cornelius Obanhein, and his wife, Mary of Stockbridge, and her daughters, Karen Seeman and her husband Stephen of Strafford, N.H., Donna Gosselin and her husband, Roy, of Suffield, Conn., and Melissa Woodruff and her husband, Robert, of Pittsford, N.Y. Nancy was very proud of her granddaughters, Kiley Gosselin, and her husband, David Tanner, Courtney Gosselin Moller and her husband, Timothy, and Olivia Woodruff. She got the biggest kick out of her great-granddaughter, Blythe Eleanor Tanner. Nancy enjoyed life to the fullest. Whether it was enjoying time with family and friends at Salisbury Estates and Suffield by The River, golfing, shopping, painting, or caring for her pets, Nancy took the time to "smell the roses." FUNERAL NOTICE: Calling hours will be Friday, Jan. 3, 2014, from 9 to 9:45 a.m. at DERY FUNERAL HOME, 54 Bradford St., Pittsfield. Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. at St. Mark Church, 400 West St., Pittsfield. Burial will follow in St. Joseph's Cemetery.
