Nicholas Miller Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 23, 2025.
Nicholas James Miller, age 84, of Nixa, Missouri, entered into eternal rest on July 2, 2025. He was born on June 23, 1941, and lived a life rooted in faith, family, and devotion to those he loved.

On August 5, 1961, Nick married the love of his life, Mary Elizabeth (née Price) Miller, with whom he shared 61 years of marriage until her passing on June 27, 2023. Together they built a strong and loving family. Nick was also preceded in death by their beloved daughter, Lauren Diane Miller Olivera, who passed away on August 4, 2023.

Nick is survived by his daughters Pattie Miller, Karen Colquhoun, and Sheila Miller-Wicklein. He is also lovingly remembered by his sister Joan, brother Joe, as well as many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, and nephews.

He will be remembered as a devoted husband, loving father and grandfather, and a faithful servant of God. His kindness, strength, and enduring Catholic faith touched all who knew him.

"Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace."
