1930 Obituary:1681 "Mrs. B. E. Miller Dead. Mrs. B. E. Miller died Monday afternoon at her home south of town. She had been ill since the third of March when she suffered a stroke of paralysis. At that time one side of her body became paralyzed and she was unable to speak for a long time. She had apparently been improving gradually and two weeks ago seemed better than she had been since she was stricken. During the past week she suffered severe pain and gradually became weaker until death came. Mrs. Miller was one of the kindest and best of women and was loved dearly by all who knew her intimately. She had lived here with her family since 1916 and her friendships were many. And many there are who grieve and sympathize with the family because of her death."
