You are all in our thoughts and prayers. She was an incredible babysitter and taught each child about the Lord including our son Doug. She was a special guest at Doug & Sarah's first childs baby shower. She was also a fantastic pie maker. Rest in peace beautiful Kathleen.

Kathleen was an inspiration to all who were blessed to know her. My children grew up under her influence and she babysat my youngest. She made our family a tea ring at Christmas for many years which we loved. She was a prayer warrior and had a ready smile and words of encouragement. I pray for her family to have the peace and Grace that God promised us in our times of need. Kathleen you will be missed

Mrs. Miller (Gaga) was very special to our family. I felt a sense of comfort being around her. She radiated light and her love for God shone through. She made the best homemade noodles and I would always look forward to our family get together's when I knew she would make them. I pray for comfort and strength for Kathy, Kay, Phil and families.

My deepest sympathies to the Miller family. Kathleen was my fourth grade Sunday school teacher, and almost thirty years later she was still encouraging and praying for me. She was a true blessing to those who knew her and a wonderful woman of faith. I'm so thankful I had a chance to know her.

Sympathies to all of her family and friends. Kathleen was a true light and when she was able to attend our chair yoga sessions, at the Bonner Center, she would radiate the room. I was very fortunate to spend time with her outside of the Center. A beautiful soul and woman. Peace Kathleen....Love Cynthia
