For over 50 years, (46 as a family member, + 4…as my sister’s classmate-friend), Deloris leaves me with nothing but the most precious memories I will cherish for the rest of my life. The yearly birthday cards- we exchanged faithfully! Her delicious spaghetti, etc. These are only a few voids that’s forthcoming for me. Until we reunite in heaven, I say “thank you,” my beautiful sister-in-love. To God we give the glory. ???

On the behave of the Eliza Miller Class of \"66\" we send our heartfelt condolences to Sis\'s family and friends. Sis was my close friend and our beloved high school classmate. Sis was one of our class\'s memorable stars with her quick wit and upbeat personality. Remembering our days of walking home from school, Sis would always keep our group laughing with her jokes and teasing. She was a joy to be with and will truly be missing. Rest in Peace my classmate sister!!
