Not sure what to say?

I had the honour to be near Father Miller many times in Kathmandu when I lived with the Jesuits there in 1988 and 2003. What a fine man he was. My respect for him will continue forever. Paribat Don H. Gilbert

My first encounter with this Noble Soul was on 27th November 2006. I hear even now the words I heard then, " we do not take God to the west of Nepal, we DISCOVER GOD there,". Dear soul feel so blessed to have met YOU, received your blessings, May you enjoy the Eternal Bliss, remember us and wish us too to arrive the destination you are in soon. Remember YOU with lots of LOVE and GRATITUDE !!! I am sending this message from Manhattan, Washington Square North.

Father Cap Miller is my father, my inspiration and my strength, he was all I had when I was seriously in trouble in Nepal, father Cap helped like God will, I just found out now that he has passed on to glory well deserved. Father, I will always miss you, the sad thing is that I will never get to see you again here on earth. Very heartbroken, very sad. I'm bleeding. Rest on my father Cap.

Truly, one of the most wonderful, interesting, informative, and unforgettable persons I have ever met. I had heard, many times from the family, how amazing he was... finally met him in August of 2018. Sadly, though I spent the entire afternoon talking to him, sharing teaching practices and student projects, that was the last trip he made back to the States. I thought of him often, and will continue to do so I have lots to tell him next time we meet

Fr. Cap was the most spiritual person I ever met. One Jesuit said he was the Mother Therese of Nepal. His life was a gift to God.
