NELLIE MILLER September 3, 1914 - June 28, 2004 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, grandmother and great-grandmother on Monday, June 28, 2004 at the Grace Hospital, beloved wife of the late Ludvic Miller. She was predeceased by her husband, Ludvic in 1993; brothers, Peter and Johnny Patrick and sisters, Jessie Skolny and Jean Flatt. Left to cherish her memory is daughter Dorothy, husband Harvey Koch; son Edward and June of Sandy Hook; five grandchildren, Colin and Darryl Koch, Janice (Barry) Watt of Calgary, Glenn (Theresa) Miller of Oakbank, Douglas (Pamela) Miller of Dauphin; eight great-grandchildren, Brandon and Spencer Koch, Patrick and Andrew Watt, Emily and Kristina Miller, Brody and Benjamin Miller and many nieces and nephews. Mom was born and raised in the R.M. of Springfield. In 1935, she married Ludvic and moved to Winnipeg. In 1954, Mom and Dad moved to their home on St. Johns Avenue, where she lived until she went into Oakview Nursing Home in March 2001. Mom loved to play bingo. Her hobbies were knitting and making beautiful pettipoint pictures, which she proudly displayed throughout her home. The family wishes to extend their heartfelt thanks to the nursing staff on the third floor of Oakview Nursing Home for their loving and tender care. At Moms request, cremation has taken place and a memorial service will be held on Thursday, July 8 at 11:00 a.m. at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main St. with Pastor Rod Buck officiating. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Nellies memory to a charity of ones choice. You can only have one mother, Loving, kind and true No other friends in all the world Will be as faithful to you. For all her love and kindness She asked for nothing in return If all the world deserted us To our Mother we would turn. For those of you who have a Mother Treasure her with care For the heartache is unbearable When she is no longer there. To hear her voice, to see her smile, To sit and talk with her awhile To be together in the same old way Would be my dearest wish today. Love, your daughter Dorothy. CROPO FUNERAL CHAPEL 586-8044
