MRS. VELONA M. MILLER FINDS PERFECT REST

Mrs. Velona Mittlene Miller, 70, passed away at her home on Fort Payne, Route 
1, Thursday night at 8:30 o’clock, following an illness of two weeks.  She was 
born in Cherokee County near Gaylesville, and had lived in DeKalb County the 
past 39 years.  For a number of years she resided in the Adamsburg community 
where she made numerous friends, for to know her was to love her, as she was 
known by hundreds as being a sweet and kind lady who was always ready to take 
an active part in anything that was for the good of her neighbors or the 
community in which she lived.  This fine lady will be sorely missed, not only 
in her own community, but all over DeKalb and Cherokee Counties, for she was 
widely known.
Mrs. Miller is gone, but her good tidings here on earth will leave a trace 
that can never be wiped away.  She was a member of the Delmar Baptist Church, 
and from early girlhood had live a faithful Christian life, that only those 
who love their Master could live.  Mrs. Miller has gone to live with her 
maker.  She will never again have to suffer in this world. That we would live 
a life as she did, we would be doing much good.  Goodbye, Mrs. Miller.  We’ll 
all miss you.
She is survived  by her husband, John P. Miller, Fort Payne, Rt. 1; one son 
John D. Miller, Fort Payne, Rt. 4; three daughters, Mrs. Harold Smith, Fort 
Payne, Rt. 4; Mrs. Claude Cassidy, Fort Payne, and Miss Chloe Miller, Fort 
Payne, Rt. 1; one brother, John Dean, Round Mountain, two sisters, Mrs. Dora 
Johns and Mrs. Jimmie Edwards, Mobile.  Funeral services were held at Delmar 
Church Sunday at 11:00 a.m. with the Rev. John Blassingame and Rev. J. W. 
Payton officiating.
