We are so sorry to hear of the loss of Mike. He no longer has to fight the fight, and can now ride as long as he wants. May peace bestow your family at this time.

To the Family of Mike "Bush" Miller,
I'm saddened to hear of Mike's passing. He was the Union Steward on the very first day I started at OBT Co. back in '72 on a line crew @ 483 Neilston Ave. Mike was one of a kind and I'll always hold those days when we were young and carefree near and dear to my heart and remember him and them w/a smile. So long Pal, see you in the next life. R.I P..... J.D.

Dear Mrs. Miller and Denise...
I am so sorry to read of Mike's passing but rejoice in knowing he no longer suffers. The good news is that we will all be together again and he is dancing with the angels. May the Lord wrap each of you in his loving arms today, tomorrow and always.
In Christian love,

Denise, my prayers are with you at this time. Mike was more than your brother, he was your best friend. Always remember the good times that you two shared and know that he is no longer in pain or suffering. God bless all of you at this difficult time and may He keep you in his loving care.

Dearest Mike,
Although God took you from us much too early, as he has so many of our Bell System family, I am certain He has a great plan for you up there and you will do it with the utmost grace and goodness as you did your committments here on Earth. Your pain and suffering is over and I am looking forward to seeing you in heaven where I know you will be at the gate to greet and welcome me, like you did here when I coudn't go alone....
To Ramona and family, Mike is with his Heavenly and Earthly fathers and you can take comfort in knowing that he is sufferning no more. The pain of this world is over and he is enjoying eternal happiness and peace.....
God Bless you all and may you gain strength and comfort from his courageous battle and his faith..... What a GREAT person he was and what a void he has left in us all.....
