Not sure what to say?

Paul R, or "RAY" as my father affectionately called his best friend, was perhaps one of the finest human beings I've ever known. When I joined their annual pheasant hunts in South Dakota, he never mentioned what a horrible shot I was, and I really appreciated that! He was always very courteous and polite to everyone around him, but was also very jovial, and uplifted my spirits every time we spoke. Ray LOVED to laugh and joke and was always a good sport, even when his sons and I would...

Paul (as I knew him) was the President of the Board of Trustees of what was then known as the Douglas County Public Library System. In 1990, he hired me as the director. He oversaw our successful campaign to establish an independent public library district.

Paul was the best leader I have ever seen. He had two remarkable pairs of qualities: he was unfailingly courteous and polite, and he was deeply principled and direct. My favorite memory: after our party celebrating the formation...

I had the pleasure of working at the Dairy for a good many years. Paul was always personal with people, he'll be missed.

Ray will be missed deeply. From his long time Barber

I have been in business for a long time and have had the opportunity to meet a plethora of individuals. I can honestly attest to the fact that I have never met a man more gracious, honest and forthright as Mr. Paul Miller in my career.

From the moment I had the distinct honor to meet Mr. Paul Miller within the confines of a Sales Presentation, I could feel his sincerity. Furthermore, I can easily discern how Mr. Paul Miller transcended the Fluid Milk Industry in Colorado.

Mr. Miller, I was so saddened when found out that you had passed away. You were always so very kind to me, and I considered you a friend. I will never forget you standing at my desk, waiting for me to become aware of your presence there, just to shake my hand and say hello. You would always come down to visit with us, and if I was walking down the hall you would wait to speak to me. I appreciate everything you have done for the mental health community and you will be dearly missed here. We...

What an amazing man. As a Royal Crest Dairy employee, it was an absolute pleasure working for such a respectable man. Any time he came to visit the Longmont branch he would always shake my hand and say hello. I have so much respect for this man and now I have even more after reading his obituary. Sending love and condolences to his wife, children, family and friends. Thank you for all you've done Mr. Miller.

We were great friends, over 38 years worth. We argued over politics, we agreed about politics, we laughed and had many great St. Patricks Days. Cliff Young's was the spot, back in the day. A true gentleman, so many great stories... Hard to imagine the world without him. He loved his family and friends and the dairy family. He will be remembered.
