Dorothy E. Miller (Phillips) age 90 of Wayne passed peacefully on Monday, June 2, 2014.
She was born in Ridgewood and lived in Paterson, North Haledon, and Butler before moving to Wayne in 1954 where she has lived for the past sixty years. Dorothy and her husband built their home themselves with the help of their neighbors Bob and Lee Munster. Her son Carl recalls listening to Amos and Andy on the radio as they carried bags of cement into the house.
Dorothy met her future husband, Carl B. Miller, while roller-skating. They soon fell in love and married on March 15, 1942 at the New Apostolic Church in Paterson. Carl was in the Army Air Corps and serving during WWII when they married. They enjoyed forty two years of loving and devoted marriage before his passing in 1984.
Dorothy worked for the Western Publishing Company in Wayne for several years and then worked for the US Laser Company in Wyckoff as an administrative assistant for many years having been laid off, against her will, at the age of 85.
She was a dedicated member of the New Apostolic Church in Wayne where she was known by the children of the church as “the candy lady.” Dorothy enjoyed singing in the church choir for many years.
Dorothy will be remembered as a loving mom, grandmother, and great-grandmother who was outgoing, willing to express her opinion, and a great baker and cook. She was a true New York Yankee fan who loved the animals in her yard including the deer and chipmunks.
Dorothy is survived by her children, Carl Miller, Jr., Nancy Stier and Glenn Miller, her four grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
In lieu of flowers memorial donations to the New Apostolic Church, 819 Edwards Road, Parsippany, NJ, 07054 would be appreciated.
The family thanks all those who offered their condolences.
