Larry Marvin Miller peacefully returned to his heavenly home June 11, 2017 from Parkinson's disease. He touched so many lives in his 83 yrs. He was born on March 29, 1934 to Lloyd Schow Miller and Lessie Devey in Alpine Utah. He married the love of his life Nadine Royle on June 29, 1953 (later solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple). Together they had four children. He graduated from BYU in education, and worked for the Granite School District as a teacher and counselor for over 30 yrs. He also enjoyed many other work interests to support his family. He had a real passion for the beauty of nature and loved sharing it with his posterity. He had a fabulous sense of humor and loved to laugh especially at his own jokes. His other passion was all things BYU! Go Cougars! He was a true gentleman and treated his wife like a queen. He was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints his entire life. He served a mission with his eternal companion in the Quezon City Philippines from 2000 - 2001. Upon their return they served as ordinance workers in the Salt Lake Temple for many years. His legacy of kindness, love, generosity, work ethic, sense of humor, passion for life, and his love for his wife will live on in his posterity.
