Mr. Miller, 89, of Jayess, Mississippi, passed from life on Thursday, February 6, 2020 at Beacham Memorial Hospital in Magnolia, MS. He was born on September 4, 1930 in Jayess, Mississippi to Joe Lee Miller and Velma Wallace Miller.
Herman married Gloris Wallace on March 3, 1948 and was a devoted husband for 49 years until her death in 1997. He farmed the land he was raised on, worked land rigs, and was a heavy equipment operator for Clark's Construction which is where he retired from. It was once asked if Herman could complete a particular job with a backhoe? The answer was "He can comb your hair with it if you need him to." After retiring from construction in 1995, he returned to working the same land with his son-in-law David on the dairy farm until David's untimely death in 2010. From that time on, he spent as much time as he could with his family. He remained wrapped around the fingers of his 2 great-granddaughters Kinsley and Kastyn until his very last breath.
He was preceded in death by Joe Lee Miller (Father), Velma Miller (Mother), Gloris Wallace Miller (wife), Frances Miller (Sister), Edward Miller (Brother), David Fuller (Son-in-law).
Survivors include Theresa Miller and Michael (Daughter), Helen Bourn and Johnny (Sister), Chris Fuller and Kacy (Grandson), Chloey Miller (Granddaughter), Brody Miller (Grandson), Zachary Miller (Grandson), Kinsley Fuller (Great-granddaughter), Kastyn Fuller (Great-granddaughter).
Pallbearers will be Chris Fuller, Steven Cothern, J.R. Johnson, Kevin Allen, Richard Cothern, and Donnie Harvey.
