Milton was one of my best friends growing up in Tunkhannock. We spent a lot of time stomping up and down creeks. Always had a great sense of humor. It was my honor and privilege to call him my friend. Rest in peace, and may God's comforting and loving grace be with the White family.

To the White family my sincerest condolences. Milton was a great person and enjoyed talking about hunting when he came into the office. Although I only knew him for a short time I sensed he love for the outdoors. He made the best deer jerky around. He surely will be missed by many.
