David Alan Miller, 57, of Roachdale, passed away July 16, 2023, surrounded by family and friends.

David was born June 4, 1966, in Greencastle. He was the oldest son of James Edward Miller and Sharon Sue (Bell) Miller.

David worked doing flooring and for his father’s garage as a mechanic for a big part of his life, and the other part he spent working side by side with his uncle Stan and brother Brian.

David was a man full of life who never met a stranger. He loved to be out in the woods hunting mushrooms and ginseng with family and friends. Another one of his favorite pastimes was fishing. David enjoyed anything that had to do with being with family and sharing stories and laughter.

David was a jokester and loved making people laugh. He loved his daughters and was a very proud grandpa to his grandchildren. Being able to see them and do anything with him would put a smile on his face that would outshine the sun. Being a grandpa was one of his greatest joys. He was always willing to listen, give advice, sit in comfortable silence or lend a helping hand if he was able. He was loved by many and will be truly missed.

He is survived by his daughters, Anita (Dmitry) Oberneder, Autumn (Daniel) Nicolai and Amber (Mark) Jarnagan, all residing in Arizona. He is also survived by his sisters and brother, Jamie (Dennis) Grimes of Terre Haute, Jennifer Farley of Crawfordsville and Brian (Mary) Miller of Indianapolis. David is also survived by 11 grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by both of his parents and grandparents.

There will be a celebration of life for David on Aug. 4 at the Roachdale Christian Church, 202 Franklin St., Roachdale, from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Please feel free to come and celebrate David’s life.
