MARY ETTA (LEHMAN) MILLER Obituary (1961

Mary Etta Miller, age 58, left this earth for heaven on Thursday, November 7th 2019. She was surrounded by her husband and all of her children. She was born January 3, 1961 in Middlebury, Indiana to Elmer and Edna Lehman. From age 18 to 25 she was a schoolteacher to children grades one through eight, in private Amish schools in northern Indiana. She married the love of her life, Lloyd Miller, from Rexford, Montana on April 9, 1987 when she uprooted her life in the Midwest and moved to Montana as a newlywed. Her motherhood began 10 months after her marriage and she went on to have 9 beautiful children. Her life was given in service to her family. She was a passionately dedicated wife and mother with an outstanding gift for hospitality. A flourishing home environment was created under her guidance and many received so much from her hands. Her home was always open to anyone in need. As the years went on, her circle of influence expanded to people across the world. She traveled with her husband to many nations in service of people and the ministry God had called her to. She loved well, and desired nothing more than to have her family and the people in her life love each other. She was a lover of peace and beauty and never said no to a request for help from anyone. She had the most gentle listening ear and a heart full of mercy. She is survived by her husband, 9 children, their spouses, and 4 grandchildren.
