Sidney owned and operated the Yellow Canary Hobby Shop in Bossier City for many years. During her time as owner of the Yellow Canary, she taught various hobby and painting classes and made many friends. She was a very creative and talented artist who loved working with her hands and making arts and crafts. Sidney created many wonderful things with her talents, and this could be seen if you walked through her home and observed many of her lovely oil paintings and works of art.

Sidney was like her mother and loved everyone, and was very much loved by everyone who knew her. She was a wonderful wife, mother and a grandmother. She was known to her family as Ma Maw.

Her parents Bryan A. and Aline Platt Smith preceded her in death. Left to cherish her memory is her husband of 52 years, David L. Miller, Sr.; her daughter, Debra Marie Miller of Haughton, LA; son David L. Miller, Jr. and wife, Cathy, of Bossier City, LA; son Bryan Miller and wife, Vickie, of Frisco, TX; and four grandchildren, David Randolph, Michael, Alexis, and Nicholas.

The family wishes to thank Dr. James Jackson for his dedicated service while she was in his care.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that memorials be made to Haughton Methodist Church, Haughton, LA, or to the donor's choice of charities.
