Lucretia Fuller Miller was born near Springs, Pa., Sept. 18, 1844 to David and Elizabeth Fuller. She died Nov. 12, 1927 at the home of her daughter near Lancaster, Pa., where she had gone for a visit two weeks prior to her death. Death was caused by pleurisy and heart trouble; aged 83 y. 1 m. 25 d. She was united in marriage with Daniel J. Miller Nov. 24, 1861. Her husband died in 1920. Their union was blessed with twelve children, all of whom grew to manhood and woman hood. Three of the children--viz., Milton, Lydia (Mrs. John H. Bender) and Sallie (Mrs. D. H. Bender) preceded their mother in death. The other nine were all present at the funeral, viz.-Gideon, William, Ulysses, MaLinda (Mrs. F. W. Bender), Annie L., Edward, Clarence, Minnie (Mrs. Fred Lohr) and Cora (Mrs. C. B. Shoemaker). There are 47 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren living. Other surviving relatives are one sister (Mrs. Henry Bittinger), two half-sisters and one half-brother. Sister Miller united with the Mennonite Church in her early years and lived a consistent life of testimony for her Master. In her last hours she expressed her readiness to go, her only concern being that she might be of more help to her children and grandchildren. Funeral services were conducted at the Springs Mennonite Church Nov. 15, by J. A. Ressler of Scottdale assisted by N. E. Miller of Springs. Interment in cemetery near by.
