Michael Miller Obituary

Michael David Miller of Slatington, formerly of Slatedale, passed away at home on Thursday November 6th after a lengthy battle with cancer. He was born in Allentown on June 9th 1970 to the late Sandra Miller (Moyer) and Creighton "Bobo" Miller. He married the love of his life, Luz (Lucy) Miller, on August 25th 2007. They shared their life and love of the outdoors. Whether it was hunting, fishing or driving the side-by-side at the cabin in NY, they were enjoying their time together. Mike loved hunting and fishing, which was evident from the numerous taxidermied items he had throughout their house. He worked at Nestlé Purina for 21 years as a forklift operator and was a shop steward, along with a P.E.O. He is survived by his wife, brother Jonathan Miller and his wife Adriane of Walnutport, Aunt Carole Miller and the late Kay McGucken of Tampa, Florida, sisters-in-law Sonia Olivo and Carmen Rodriguez, mother-in-law Anna Roman, all of Philadelphia, his stepsons Steven Ortiz of San Diego, CA, Ruben Ortiz of Philadelphia, step-grandson Jameson Ortiz of Newfoundland, Uncle Ernest Moyer and the late Grace of Slatington, Aunt Janice Silliman and the late Ronald of Slatington, Aunt Deborah Kern and Arthur of Wescosville, Aunt Nancy Loch and Larry of Alburtis, along with cousins and numerous friends he had throughout his life. He is predeceased by his mother and father, grandfather's Ernest Moyer Sr. and Lester Miller, grandmother's Mary (Maisie) Moyer and June Miller, Aunt Karen and Rodney Mummey. A celebration of his life will be held Saturday November 15th at Hunsicker Funeral home in Orefield, with calling hours from 1-2 and service at 2 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Slatedale Fire Company in Mike's name.

Anyone who knew Mike knew they had a friend forever. He had a heart of gold, always ready for a healthy challenge but never attacking anyone´s character. Mike has helped me in so many ways even he didn´t know. May he rest in peace.

Luz, my heart goes out to you and your family. Please know there are so many people you can call on. We´re all here to support you in any way you need.

My sincere condolences to Mike's family and friends. His father and mine were close friends throughout their lives until Bobo was taken - also far too young. Mike and I played together as children and he was a great guy. I hope that his memory brings comfort to all who knew him.

In 2nd Timothy chapter four, verse seven it states, "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." Mike fought as hard as he could, and is no longer in pain, and no longer suffering. I thank God for the time I was given to know him and although it was short, I'm honored to have known him. Lucy - Your strength is unparalleled. Please accept my prayers and deepest condolences. I would ask you to be at peace with knowing you did everything in your power to help him through it all. May your guardian angel rest in peace.
