Eleanor Miller Obituary
September 13, 1931 - May 5, 2021
Eleanor Willard Miller passed away peacefully on May 5, 2021, at Rhoda Goldman Plaza in San Francisco. Ellie, a fourth-generation San Franciscan, was born September 13, 1931, to Robert Henry Willard and Adelaide Klein Willard. Raised in Sea Cliff with older brothers Robert and Morton, Ellie graduated from Lowell and Cal.
In 1958 Ellie married Howard J. Miller, who predeceased her in January. She treasured adventure travel with Howie and the twenty-five years she spent working at San Francisco University High School. She is survived by daughters Jeanne, Susan (Denis Roy), and grandchildren Zachary (Kelly), Taylor, and Tucker.
The family is grateful to the Rhoda Goldman Plaza staff for their kindness and support. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in her memory to Achenbach Graphic Arts Council of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco [email protected]

Eleanor was a Cal fan, she and I graduated and remained friends for the rest of our lives. Howard, Jeannie and Suzy were part of our lives until recently. She will remain with me as a good friend, an excellent cook and a person always ready for adventures.
