Obituary of Anthony James Miller

Anthony (Tony) James Miller, 64, of Tucson, AZ, passed away peacefully on June 10, 2020.

He was born on May 16, 1956 in South Bend, IN.

He married Anne Miller (Lips) on March 14, 1981 in South Bend, IN.  They recently celebrated 39 years of marriage.

Tony proudly served our country in the United States Air Force and Air Force National Guard.  His service included multiple stations internationally and a year deployment in Diego Garcia during the Gulf War.  Upon retirement from the Armed Forces, he flew in an F-14 over the greater Tucson area (including his house) in celebration.

Tony also received his Associates Degree from ITT Tech and pursued a career in computer technology, learning networks and applications with NovaNet.

His greatest memories included times with his “unit” and other family and friends.  Tony always had a project in mind, ongoing, or being completed.  He loved camping, riding his quad “Hiram” and teaching his daughters and grandchildren anything and everything.

Tony is preceded in death by his father, James Miller; mother, Beatrice Miller; sister, Rita Gerencher; and nephew, Jeremy Adams.  He is survived by his wife, Anne; daughters, Marie (Bill Kelly), Mallory Miller; sister, Leona (Bob Adams); brother Michael (Kristi); grandsons, Sean and Thomas Kelly; and multiple in-laws, nieces, and nephews.

We love and miss you. “That’s Affirmed.”
