Robert A. Miller

Robert A. Miller 1926 - 2004 Robert A. Miller of Riverview, NB passed away peacefully on Sunday, November 28, 2004 at The Moncton Hospital, surrounded by his family. Born in Regina, Saskatchewan, he was the son of the late Robert and Ida (Baker) Miller. Robert was the Regional Land Surveyor for Canadian National Railways for 25 years, retiring in 1991. He was past President of the New Brunswick Land Surveyor's Association and held a lifetime membership. He was also the first one to hold a land surveyor's license for all three maritime provinces at one time, as well as a member of Riverview Veterans Association. In his younger years he was active in many sports, and was a member of the first mixed curling team to win the Forbes Trophy in Nova Scotia, and was inducted into the Middleton Sports Wall of Fame in 2002. His real love was fishing and he also enjoyed bowling, and in later years golf. Robert was also an avid gardener who kept the neighborhood supplied with tomatoes over the years. Much time was spent with family and friends at his cottage in Nova Scotia, which he called Shangrila and loved nothing better than to sit on the veranda and look over the harbour watching the abundant wild life there. He is survived by his loving wife Peggy of Riverview; daughters, Dawn Miller-Cormier (Jean) of Bedford, NS and Karen Miller of Fredericton, NB; and one brother, Jack Miller (Jean) of PEI. In addition to his parents he was predeceased by a sister Donna. With deep respect to Robert's wishes, there will be no public funeral service. Private family services will be held. If so desired, memorial donations may be made to The Friends of The Moncton Hospital Foundation or a memorial of the donors choice. Interment in Fairhaven Serenity Niche.
