Was a maintenance man where I lived but we were Facebook friends before that. He was always kind and respectful. The type that you don’t really run across anymore. Had a loving old soul of a heart. Would go out of his way to help a stranger! He is missed!

John was a kind hearted father. His 6 yr old daughter Brendal Miller is saddened by the news of his passing. John was good to Brendal and always made sure she was safe and happy. He will be missed.

When we went to cut a Christmas tree Eddie just had to
Have his own Paul let him pick
Out one he did about a 2 foot
Because he was 4 he didn't
Want it taller than him we took
It to the house and decorated it
He was so proud of it. I'm so sorry for your loss. If I had known
I would had came.
