Sending condolences and love to the Smith-Miller Families. I will always remember Pastor Miller and Mother Miller, when they had Genesis book store on Lineberger Street in Shelby NC. Prayers for everyone!!
Aunt Bill, you will be missed. You were such a special person, you and Uncle June gave me my first job and you and Sheena taught me a lot about life. You made the best pound cakes, and that honeybun cake was great. You got to try chow-chow didn't know it was spicy but it was good. Your stories, your laughter, your smile, just so infectious and to watch you play piano I was so proud to say, "That's my Aunt Bill." Like Djuana said your birthday calls will be missed, but calling you on your birthday with my class singing behind me was the best. So many memories and life lessons, that I will carry with me in life and I am grateful God allowed me 49 years with you... Love you always, kiss Ma for me...
