Jim was one of the nicest people I've ever met. Although I had known him less than a year, he made a great impression on me with his generosity and willingness to help in many ways.

The "Miller Boys" were a favorite of the Fork Creek community when they were growing up. They were always willing to help a nieghbor in need.  My Dad could not have continued his favorite thing to do (raising cattle) if Jim and the brothers had not come to his aid from time to time.  Dad had a soft spot in his heart for them and appreciated them very much.  I am very saddened by the loss of Jim and will be praying for the family in the weeks to come. May God give each of you comfort as you get through the coming days.
