I will never forget the generosity Mr. Miller showed me for over 13 years as he alliowed me to keep my horse in his pasture. I think he knew that without his help I might have had to give up my horse. Those years spending time wirh my horse and time enjoying nature in that beautiful place will always be wrh me. My love to all of you.

Jimmy, I am so saddened to learn of the death of your beloved Daddy. What an extraordinary life he and your Mom lived and what a legacy he leaves for you, his grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. My oldest brother, Larry, speaks highly of Coach Miller, as do many other men who were mentored by him. Losing a parent is so hard as they seem to be the glue that holds the family together. Love your Mom as she has lost the love of her life. Just be there for your family as you weather this storm in your life and know that there are people who know you and are praying for peace in your hearts.

When I think back to my time in Mission I cannot help but think of Mr. Miller, walking around the neighborhood carrying his putter. He was such a sweet man and neighbor. Mission's loss is the Lords gain. He will surely be missed.

I'll always have fond memories of Uncle Jim. His engaging manner, his entertaining stories and his sincerity made him a very likeable and charismatic person.

To Aunt Es, and all the Texas Millers, you are in our thoughts and prayers. Uncle Jim's passing is a great loss, yet I know you will not be morning, but be celebrating his wonderful life. Your love for each other will carry you through these difficult days.
