    Mrs. Miller was always a kind, generous, and true lady. When Glenda and I would practice music together, she was always ready to offer kind words and a great snack. My husband and I were talking about the wonderful Miller family just this morning. I truly miss them but am grateful I shared a part of my life with them.

    Mrs. Miller was one of the nicest people I ever knew growing up in Flomaton. Many of us traded at Mr. and Mrs. Miller’s clothing store. The town of Flomaton has lost great citizens in Mr. and Mrs. Miller. I lost a friend in their daughter, Glenda, a few years back. Thankfully, fond memories of this family will always stay with me. My condolences go out to Freddy Mac and to the Miller’s extended families.
