Died:
MILLER Sydney John Howard August 7, 1914 - January 14, 2008
It is with sadness and great family loss that we announce the passing of Howard who was in his 94th year.
Howard was predeceased by Iva, his wife of almost 60 years, son Ken and brothers Bert and Doug.
He leaves his loving family: son Syd (Carol), daughter-in-law Evelyn, grandchildren .... and great-grandchildren ...... He is also survived by his brother Dave, sisters Helen and Margaret and several nieces and nephews.
Howard was born in Edmonton and raised in the Forest Heights area of the city. He married and continued to reside in Edmonton through to 1943. A career change during WWII brought Howard to the coast to assist in the war effort. He settled in Burnaby, became a shipwright and worked in several shipyards along the Fraser River, False Creek and Burrard Inlet. Howard was a fine craftsman and could work with wood or metal.
Howard and Iva enjoyed RVing and travelled across Canada.
He was community minded, and served as a scout master and was a support to those in need.
He was always an enthusiastic encourager to his grandchildren, and he loved to be a part of their accomplishments.
The family wishes to express its heartfelt apprecation for the excellent care and comfort provided by the staff at Howard's residence, Buchanan Lodge, in New Westminster. A special bonding between staff and Howard was evident throughout his stay but particularly during his recent illness.
A private family memorial service was held on January 18th at Buchanan Lodge. For those wishing to recognize Howard's passing donations can be made to Buchanan Lodge, 409 Blair Avenue, New Westminster, BC, V3L 4A4.

Died:
Miller -
There passed away at her home in Bathurst in the early morning of the 18th inst., Mrs Ellen Miller, after an illness of but a few days. Mrs. Miller had reached the remarkable age of 92 years and 4 months and up to the time of her illness had been in good health with intellect bright and with a capacity for sharing with others in the joys and sorrows.

Over half a century ago at the early age of 47 years her life partner Mr. Andrew Miller passed away and on the shoulders of Mrs Miller fell the task of caring for and directing the activities of a large family. Patience, fortitude and self-sacrifice were outstanding virtues in the life of the deceased and added to these was a brightness of life and a depth of sympathy that won for her friendship that lasted throughout her life and living memories that will long remain with those who knew her. In life she experienced the sustaining and upholding grace of God and in death she passed to be with her Saviour whom she loved and in whose service she found quiet joy.

Mrs. Miller leaves to mourn the loss of a devoted mother, two daughters, Adaline, whose life was so closely linked with that of the deceased, and Tena (Mrs. John Jordan of Christy's Lake); also five sons, Nelson of Crookston, Minn; Sydney, of Edmonton, Alta; Norman of town; and Edwin and Harvey of Bathurst. Three sons predeceased their mother, Lorenzo and Arthur of Crookston, and Albert who died in infancy.

The funeral was held on Friday afternoon when friends and neighbors in large numbers congregated at the home to pay a silent tribute to one who for such a lengthy span of years had lived and moved amongst them. The funeral services was in charge of Rev. Mr. Harrison, minister of Clavin Church, assisted by Rev. M.C. Mackinnon of St. Paul's Church, town. During the service a most appropriate duet was effectively rendered by Miss Marion Palmer and Mr. R. W. Palmer. The bearers were Messrs. W.J. Palmer, John Korry, Sterling Miller, Alex. Kirkham, Willie Stewart and Roy Miller. The body was placed in the vault in Elmwood Cemetery awaiting interment at a later date.
