William L. Miller was third of seven children born to Stuart

and attended school in Pauline, South Carolina, graduating from

he attended Southeastern University where he received a degree
in Business Science. Soon after, Bill decided to serve his country
in the U.S. Army, where he received several months training as a
military intelligence specialist.
On November 12, 1957, Bill married Jacqueline G. Lefebvre of
Paris, France, where they met during his time in the Army. After
Jacqueline’s passing in 1974, Bill remarried in April 1977 to Hazel
H. Brown, sharing 32 years of love and marriage, before Hazel’s
passing in 2009.
After 28 years of service to Martin Marietta, known today as
Lockheed Martin, he retired head of security and moved he and his
wife to Cedaredge, CO, where he resided until his passing. After
getting bored with retirement, he dedicated the rest of his life to the
town of which he loved, Cedaredge, CO.
Some of Bill’s greatest accomplishments were his involvement
in the Grand Mesa Scenic and Historic Byway; his position
in real estate where he obtained the title of Managing Broker;
his involvement with the American Legion where he served as
Commander; his membership in the Cedaredge Rotary Club where
he held many officer positions in the Lions Club, and his election of
Mayor where he served two terms.
Bill is survived by his children, Laurie Miller Austin of
Montrose; Patrick John Miller of Denver, and Phillip Jack Miller
(Kathy) of Morrison; three sisters; four grandchildren; eight greatgrandchildren, and six great-great-grandchildren.
