Wilma Lexine Miller

August 19, 2021

Wilma Lexine Miller passed away on August 17, 2021 in Molino, FL.

She was born on February 3, 1928 in McCullough, AL to Joe and Ida Floyd. Lexine married the love of her life, Bobby C. Miller, Sr., after knowing him for only 3 days and they celebrated 70 sweet years together. They had 4 children, 8 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, and 4 great, great-grandchildren. She was very proud of all of them.

As a young girl, she went to Barrineau Park School and then graduated from Tate High School in 1946. The family believes Lexine was the oldest original member of Barrineau Park. She went to Mobile Beauty School and became a beautician and worked in downtown Pensacola until she met her husband. Then she became a housewife and a wonderful mother. She made sure that her children were brought up to be kind, considerate, and very respectful of everyone. Her children kept her in the back of their minds while they were raising their own children – she was a great role model!

Lexine is survived by her daughters, Karen Wood and Donna L. Gatlin; and sons, Bobby C. Miller, Jr. and Michael R. Miller.

Funeral services will be held on August 21, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. at Little Flock Primitive Baptist Church with Elder David Johnson officiating. The family will receive friends from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Faith Chapel Funeral Home North. Burial will follow at Little Flock Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery.

Pallbearers are Dustin Ard, James Ard, Matthew Gatlin, Jason Miller, Mike Kapotsy, and Brad Shaw. Honorary pallbearers are Mark Eichholtz, Tim Daniels, Ronnie Beasly, Jechonias Wood, John Miller, and Jessy Gilliard.

The family requests that all precautions be taken for Covid-19 and wearing a mask is required.
