Sending our heartfelt sympathy to Michael and Beverly Miller and Family. As believers in CHRIST, we must accept HIS will, but when you lose a loved one, especially your Mom and Grandmother – It hurts! But find comfort in knowing she is resting with the LORD. In all things we still give HIM the praise. We pray that GOD will send his angels to comfort you and your family, and that the tears you shed now will be replaced with the loving memories of your Mom and Grandmother. With Prayer and our Deepest Sympathy
Ms. Miller touched so many hearts. May her legacy of kindness and love continue to shine through all who knew her. Holding the family in my thoughts. Truly, 99 and 1/2 just wouldn’t do—she lived a full and faithful life!
May the peace of God that surpasses all understanding rests upon Michael, Beverly and the entire Miller during this time and the days ahead. Allow the memories of good times sustain you all.
Beverly, on behalf of the Class ofv1975 from Whitmire High School and the 1970 Class of Carver Elementary School, we are here for you and Michael.
Much love.
Condolences to the Miller family. Mrs. Edith was a great friend and neighbor. Rest in peace, Edith, rest in peace.
Our heartfelt condolences and prayers go out to the Miller and Casey Families. Mrs. Miller was a very loving and dedicated matriarch to her family. She was truly a blessing to all who knew her. To have lived to be 100 years old speaks for itself. She will be sorely missed. May GOD provide the necessary strength needed to endure your time of grieving. GOD bless you all. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️
Our deepest condolences to the Miller Family. Mrs. Miller was a good friend of my grandmother, Ann “Sue” Bingham. We pray God’s peace for you all at this difficult time.

Eric and Family
please accept my family‘s warmest condolences for your loss. No words can do justice to a loss such as the one you have all experienced. Just know that you do not walk this journey alone. While, I did not get a chance to directly meet your mother. I know that she’s very proud of you and your family and all that you have accomplished and will accomplish in the future. I also know that she lives in each one of you.
I lost my mother in March 2016. There’s not a day that doesn’t go by that I do not think of her! I am comforted by friends such as you. So to that end, just know that me, my family and your friends are always with you. Every step along the way.
Remember all that there is to remember about your mom and pass it all along so that she can live forever!
Please accept my family warmest condolences and know that we are with you and we love you! You are never alone, my dear brother!
Carl Mayfield.

Love and condolences to the Miller/Casey Family.
Mrs. Miller was kind and loving and She will truly be missed. We are Praying for and with the Family.
Met Me at Tapp’s, yes that where I met Mrs. Miller. We were both elevator operators. We carried the people up and down.We met people from everywhere and especially this time of the year. Working in a large department store during the Christmas was an unforgettable experience. Working with Mrs. Miller was a joy and a pleasure. On pay day she would remind me to save some of my pay check. Mrs. Miller lived a very long (100years )good life. I know that Barbara and Valerie are waiting at the gate with open arms. Mrs. Miller enjoy your journey for the best is yet to come.
Dear family of our dear member, Edith Diggs Miller:
I have known Mrs. Miller and her husband Bill from the time they lived around the corner from my family on Gervais Street, even though I was quite young.
She was a lady who enjoyed life
in every since of word as I remember.
As a member for all of the years that she was at First Nazareth Baptist Church, she continued to be active in several ministries even after retiring from Tapp’s Dept. store where she was the ever present “elevator lady”…imagine that during that period.
She was flamboyant as she would be dressed to the nine every Sunday even as she was in her nid nineties and would step in the front entrance of the church looking regal in what looked like her specialty hats that were designed especially for her .
That was the last vision I had of Mrs. Edith Diggs Miller, wife of William “Bill” Miller on the 4th Sunday of the kast month she was in attendance..
She was quite a lady who was still active, even as she was a vibrant celebrant at her 100th birthday that was captured on TV and in the Panorama paper.
What a life she lived as she has now ascended from these mundane shores of this life to her eternal rest with her Father in heaven!
JOY TO THE WORLD. She has moved out to move in with her family who preceded her and her church members!
Family, you were blessed to have had your Mother for a century in your lives!!
God indeed gets the glory for the things He has done!
Deepest prayers and sympathy to the Family of Mrs. Miller. Although I’m in a different age group I sang on the Jubilee Choir with her and I had lots of laughs and fun with those wonderful Ladies. Prayers to you all🙏🏽💜
Aunt Edith and Mommy have been friends, the best of friends, since before my birth. Back when my siblings and her children all grew up together (that’s over 70 years ago). I will always remember going around the corner to her house with Mommy, and watching them laugh and talk about everything under the sun. And Aunt Edith coming with us up to Lake Murray and spending weekends with us having fun.
They were buddies, even having their birthdays, Aunt Edith the 14th and Mommy’s the 15th, in the same month.
She will be missed and we send love, light and prayers to Michael, Eric, and the grandbabies, great-grands and the rest of the family.
With all our love,
Destinee Stephanie and Thomasina C. Means
May God comfort your family during this most difficult time

To the Miller family. My sincere condolences to you all. Mrs. Miller was one of the sweetest souls I’ve ever met. Her smile when we talked would always make me smile back. She was so beautiful inside and out. May God bless you all and continue to protect and provide for you in her absence on earth. Sincerely,
Sharon L. Stukes
