John T. “Johnny” Miller, age 43, of Secane, PA, passed away on July 2, 2025. Born in Chester, PA, he was the beloved son of the late Kathleen Diamics (David Nespoli, Sr.) and John Miller (Eileen).

Johnny navigated through life with a warm smile and a character that embraced both hard work and a profound affection for his family and friends. A skilled plumber by trade, Johnny's hands were as adept at mending pipes as they were at building cherished moments with his loved ones. He was a man of many passions. He found joy in the intricate machinery of automobiles, relishing every opportunity to work on cars and breathe life into engines as he nurtured his love for them.

Johnny was a devoted sports enthusiast with a spirit that thrived on the exhilarating highs and occasional lows of watching his beloved Phillies play. His enthusiasm for the game was only rivaled by his loyalty to the Cowboys, creating a delightful dynamic of spirited banter amongst his friends. These moments, whether spent on the couch or at the stadium, painted a vivid picture of a man who valued camaraderie and connection.

Family was at the heart of Johnny’s universe. Whether embarking on summer boat rides, engaging in friendly competitions of Wii sports with his daughter, or casting lines during fishing expeditions, he cherished every opportunity to create cherished memories. His laughter echoed in the spaces he shared with his loved ones, making each gathering a testament to his vibrant spirit.

An aficionado of life’s simple pleasures, Johnny drew joy from various hobbies, including playing darts and listening to the uplifting sounds of Jelly Roll. He found solace in favorite places such as The Trailer at Indian Acres Campground, the serene shores of Aruba, the inviting atmosphere of The Porch, and the raucous excitement of Barefoot County Concerts.

Johnny was the loving father of Malaina Miller and devoted brother of Christopher Miller, Keith Miller, and Jacob Miller. He is also survived by his devoted life partner, Jillian Adcock, and caring step-daughter, Devon Rogers.

Family and friends are invited to Johnny’s Visitation 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM on Saturday, July 12th at The Donohue Funeral Home, 8401 West Chester Pike, Upper Darby, PA 19082, followed by his Funeral Service at 1:00 PM. Interment Private.
