Bob was born December 30, 1935 in Seymour to Walter and Gustie Montgomery Miller.  He was a 1954 graduate of Seymour High School and played football at Texas Tech University.  He worked for over 60 years in the trucking and oilfield industry.  Bob loved going the Maverick Café to meet up with the boys.  He enjoyed morning drinking coffee and doing crossword puzzles.  He especially enjoyed watching Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy and would laughingly say it was to “get his education”.  He loved to grill on his Blackstone grill that he got for Father’s Day and always had to make his “famous BBQ sauce”.  Bob adored his dogs, Cookie and Taz and his bird, Poco.  He was preceded in death by his parents, Walter and Gustie Miller, 2 sisters, Vernice Doyle and Helen Styles; a grandson, Josh and a great granddaughter, Bethany.

Survivors include his children, Chris Miller Hooker, Misti Miller and Robert Miller; a brother, Eugene Miller; a sister, Betty Hill; 7 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren.
