William David Miller Obituary (1922

“Loving Husband, Father, Grandfather and & Great-Grandfather” South Jordan, UT- William David Miller, “Dr. Bill,” passed away on September 23, 2017, at the age of 95. Bill was born January 6, 1922 in Spanish Fork, Utah to William and Maud Miller. Ten days later, the love of his life was born in the same city. Bill married Lorna Argyle on August 29, 1942 and they were later sealed in the St. George Temple. Following his six years in the army during World War II and schooling at BYU and USC, Bill & Lorna spent much of their adult life in their beloved Whittier, California, where he practiced dentistry, and where he and Lorna raised their four children, while serving actively in the LDS Church in a variety of callings. Bill also later served with Lorna as temple workers in the South Jordan Temple. But above all, Bill will be remembered for his kindness and acts of love toward everyone—and especially towards his Lorna and their posterity. Not a visit went by without the words “Love ya” being his goodbye gesture. Bill spoke often of his longing to hear yet again Lorna’s regular phrase of, “Come on Bill, let’s go.” It’s certain those were the words he heard on September 23rd. With his firm testimony of the Plan of Happiness and his Savior, he anxiously awaited the day to rejoin his Lorna and other family members that he knew waited for him beyond the grave. He is preceded in death by his wife, Lorna, parents and brother Paul. Bill is survived by his children: David (Ginger), JoLynn (Mike) Kania, LuAnn (Nick) Rudelich, Gil (Mary Ann); 18 grandchildren and their spouses; 40 great-grandchildren; and his sister, Shirley Creer. Special thanks to the Legacy House of South Jordan and Brighton Hospice, who Bill spoke of endearingly whenever the family visited him. A viewing from 10:00–10:45 a.m. followed by a brief gathering will be held Saturday, September 30, at the Berg Mortuary in Provo, UT (185 E. Center St). Afterwards, Interment will take place at Spanish Fork Cemetery. Condolences may be expressed at www.bergmortuary.com.
