Jerry Dean Miller passed away November 11, 2024, in Big Sandy, Texas at the age of 71. He was born on July 10, 1953, in Dayton, Ohio to Arthur and Janice (Frowine) Miller. Jerry never met a stranger and always considered everyone he encountered as a friend.

As a devoted husband, father, and grandfather, Jerry's love for his family was evident in everything he did. He cherished the bonds he formed with those closest to him, and his legacy will be carried on through the countless lives he touched. 

 As we reflect on his life, we celebrate a man who made every day brighter for everyone fortunate enough to call him a friend.

Those left to cherish his memories are his wife, Cortney; daughter, Melanie Blasnek and husband Martin; granddaughters, Savanna and Shelby Blasnek; brothers, Dennis Miller and Doug Miller.

He will always be loved and missed.

Rest in peace our hero.

"Always remember you are braver than you believe. Stronger than you seem. Smarter than you think and LOVED more than you know." Anonymous
