On Sunday, November 3, 2024, Jack Miller, a beloved father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend, passed away peacefully with his family by his side at the age of 89, just 17 days shy of his 90th birthday.
Jack was born on November 20, 1934, in Madill, Oklahoma, to Volney and Eithel Miller. A calm, kind, and genuine man, he was admired for his quiet strength, his sharp wit, and his boundless generosity. Jack was a devoted father to his three children, daughter Angie Harting & husband Cliff, daughter Melinda Miller, son Kevin Miller & wife Kelley and a proud grandfather to his eight grandchildren, Brandon & wife Dana, Ashley & husband Geoff, Lindsey, Paige, Kylan, Kohl, Kessley and Kasen “Jack”. He was equally adored by his great grandchildren, Adelynn, Isabella, Luke, and Liam, and shared a special bond with his loyal dog, Willow.
Jack had a natural gift for mechanics and could fix anything. Known for his ingenuity and his helpful spirit, he often spent weekends repairing A/C units, plumbing, or anything else neighbors, family and friends needed—with no thought of payment. For 45 years, Jack worked as a master plumber and pipefitter for Wattie Wolfe Mechanical Contracting Company, where his skill and dedication left a lasting impact on colleagues and clients alike.
Jack is predeceased by his parents, Volney and Eithel, his uncle Chester, and his brothers Gene Ray Miller and Dan Davis. He is survived by his children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and brothers Clifford Davis and David Davis who, along with family and friends, will carry forward his legacy of kindness, hard work, and humor.
A funeral service to honor Jack’s life will be held on Friday, November 8, at 2:00 p.m. at Barnes and Friederich Funeral Home on S. Douglas Blvd., in Midwest City, Oklahoma. Flowers may be sent to 1820 S. Douglas Blvd., MWC, OK 73130. Interment will be at Woodberry Forest Cemetery in Madill, OK.
Jack’s presence, generosity, and wisdom will be dearly missed, and he will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
