Georgea Tueller (Miller) - Class of 1931

Georgea Tueller Miller died Saturday, June 26, 2004 at her home in Corvallis with three of her daughters present. She was 91.

She was born on May 13, 2013 to Arnold and Grace Sims Tueller in Montpelier, Idaho. She grew up in Montpelier and was valedictorian of her high school class.

She married Ronald Miller on December 24, 1931, in Paris, Idaho. They moved to Boise, Idaho, shortly after their second daughter was born. They raised six daughters in Boise, where she often worked as a professional baker.

In 1980, after her husband retired from being a mail carrier, they went to Prince Edward Island to serve an 18-month mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The church was very important in her life.

She moved to California shortly after the mission and settled near the homes of three of her daughters. She lived in Gilroy until her husband died, and then moved to Morgan Hill, where she lived with her daughter, Judith Newman, for several years. When Judith died unexpectedly, her daughter, Mary Ball, moved to Morgan Hill from Boise to be with her.

She had recently moved to Corvallis to be near her daughters Monine Stebbins and Geraldine Gibson.

She enjoyed attending church activities, embroidery, reading and baking. She was very musical and sang in several choirs. She had played piano, French horn and violin when she was young.
