James R. “Jim” Miller passed away at his home on March 12, 2007.

Jim was born in Mulliken to Carl and Lenna (Perrin) Miller on August 15, 1935. 
He attended the Moyer School and went on to graduate from Charlotte High 
School. Jim had spent a number of years farming and working odd jobs in the 
winter, and had retired from the Michigan Department of Public Health. He 
enjoyed cutting wood in the winter, and during the summer could be found 
working in his large garden and doing yard work. Jim was united in marriage to 
Irene Hodge on November 22, 1969 in Portland. 

Jim was preceded in death by his parents; brothers, Carl Miller, Jr. Earnest 
Miller and Lawrence Miller; and sisters, Emily Jeanette Murphy and Patricia 
Pinch.

He is survived by Irene, his loving wife of 37 years; his children, Chris and 
Julinda Miller of Ellerslie, Ga., Tim and Darlene Miller of Portland; 
grandsons, Aidan, Bailey and Chase; and his special dog, Skipper whom he loved 
so much. Also surviving are his brothers and sister, Everett and Floris Miller, 
Richard and Kathleen Miller, and Betty Jackson; sister-in-law, Agnes Furr; 
mother-in-law, Geraldine Hodge; his loving in-laws in the Hodge family, Gary 
and Barb Hodge family, Gary and Barb Hodge, William and Sharon Hodge, Robert 
Hodge, Ronald and Susan Hodge, Michael and Sherry Hodge, Connie and Chuck Carr,

nieces and nephews.
