I will miss our trips to Florida, sitting at the bar talking about your family, dancing and laughing. You were my wingman and always my protector. The memories of us chatting and you  looking at your phone and laughing because your grandson just cost you another $20 for the goal he scored, will never  be erased. There was no one more PROUD of their family and you wore that badge on your sleeve with pride. This world has lost a gentle giant. I have lost a piece of my heart. I will miss you, Jack. Love you so much, pal. The only beautiful picture I can see in my head, is you giving Linda the biggest hug upon your arrival in Heaven.  Rest easy, my friend. Forever and ever. xo

I was so heartbroken when I received the call from John about Jackie's untimely death.  I thought about all the good times and yes, the bad times we shared.  As the family funeral director, I knew I had to make this a celebration of Jack's life, he always liked a party!  I  want to thank my staff for their assistance  in accomplishing this , so people could properly pay their respects.  
It was beautiful to see all the fire departments who assisted Wyandanch Fire Dept. in honoring Jackie for all that he did for more than 57 years.  Every person who came to pay their respects had their own story to share about him.  Jackie certainly earned  this  wonderful tribute. He was such a special guy, no one can replace him.  Now, Jackie is back with Linda and he can rest easy with the Lord.  I'm honored to have been able to call Jackie Miller  my friend.

Grandpa, I remember that you were at all my Deer Park soccer games, and I can still hear you cheering me on when I think about it. One thing I always try to do for people I love is show up and be there for them, and you always showed up. 

Love you grandpa, rest easy 
Anthony Miller

Thank you Jack for your service with the SCPD and Wyandanch VFD. You were a wonderful, sincere friend to our family. My sympathies to your loved ones, Rest in Peace with Linda, your Mom and Dad and other departed members of our families

I will miss you and all the good times we had. Thank you for everything and always being supportive of me and my family. You were a great man and a great role model for me.

I was saddened to hear of your passing. I will miss having you over for dinners and our conversations. I hope you know how much I appreciated you.  Never did you say no when I asked you for help with the boys or fixing things in the house or running over to change the gas tank so I can grill because I was scared to do it myself. Mostly, we will just miss you. Rest in Peace ❤️

We Will love and miss you forever Poppy
Love Abby and Jax

Rest in peace Jackie there are so many memories I don’t know we’re to start ! Wish I could be there in person but I’m blind due to Diabetes and in a wheelchair but my ❤️is there with you  Albie Kramer

What an honor and blessing it has been to call you my uncle. The amount of outpouring love for you is like nothing I have ever seen. There are a few people in this world that leave such a huge impact on people, and Uncle Jack, you were one of them. 

We  all will be mourning a true mentor, friend, family member…. A legend in his own way. There are not enough words,
Just tears. . I keep faith that you are reunited with Aunt Linda, dad and mom, and all the family we have lost along the way! Thank you for all your sacrifices, your service, your loyalty, your heart and most importantly your love. God Bless 😔❤️💔

TOB HazMat team mutual aid response to Huntington. Of course who rolls in as the chauffeur of the decon rig, Jackie Miller.  Helping the community & his law enforcement family with his fire department family and a big smile on his face. That was Jackie.

There are no words to express how heartbreaking Jackie’s passing is. I have had the privilege of knowing Jackie nearly my entire life through his friendship with my dad as Chiefs in the fire service. Growing up I would always look forward to seeing Jackie at parades and the Danch family picnic. I’ll always remember Jackie making sure I had enough corn on the cob with plenty of butter & lots of donuts. Eventually I followed in my Dad’s footsteps and joined the fire department. Jackie would check in on me & promised to find a leather helmet for me one day. This became our running joke every time I saw him. 
Not only did I get to know Jackie through the fire service but when I joined the SCPD I was fortunate enough to land a spot in the 1st PCT & I got to learn from Jackie’s vast knowledge & experience.  When I was a rookie the face I saw when I walked into the South House for my first Brotherhood party was Jackie. He greeted me with that trademark smile & hug that I will miss so much. The senior guys around me told me something I had already known for a long time, “listen to Jackie he’s a legend, you will learn a lot from him, he’s the best!”  He looked out for me from day one and always wanted to know what I was up to. “How’s it going baby, you make Chief yet? Not yet Jackie but maybe one day. You will. I’ll make sure of it just keep studying!”  
Jackie made sure to take care of me & my family when my dad passed suddenly. He’d check on mom at every parade. He always let us know that he never forgot his buddy Brad & that he loved the time they shared together as Chiefs.  
I know my words will not ease the pain from the loss of such an important person to the Miller family but I hope that you can eventually take comfort in knowing that Jackie gave so much to so many people. He has touched countless lives.  He was an incredible person whose legacy will live on for generations to come.  
Rest easy Chief, we will take it from here. God bless you brother.

My deepest condolences over the loss of a special friend to all who came across his path .  Jackie you left an indelible mark on the  Suffolk County Police Dept and the Wyandanch Fire Dept.  More importantly you left this world a better place because of your lifelong example of service and sacrifice . You will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

May his memory be for blessing to the Miller family and all who knew and loved Jack.

My sincere condolences to the family. He was a great man.  Thank you Jack for all the great memories and good times at the WVFD. You will be missed. God Bless you all at this very sad time.  RIP Jack.

My deepest condolences go out to you in this time of unfathomable tragedy.  May God grant you moments of peace and comfort with your loved ones.

I’d like to think you and dad are having a nice cold one together! I have no words…just tears. Thank you for being the best! Love you! 
Christine
