Johnnie Randall Miller

Mr. Miller was born on December 27, 1930 in Duplin County, North Carolina, a son to the late William Butler and Nebraska Elizabeth Thompson Miller. He was a longtime member of God’s Harvest Worship Center and attended Thomasville Church of God. No matter the case, Mr. Miller was always “tinkering” on something and was a jack-of-all-trades. In fact, there wasn’t anything that he couldn’t fix and he always enjoyed keeping himself busy. Most of all, he enjoyed gardening, the beach, going to church, spending time with his family, and fishing.

For over 52 years, he was the loving husband of Bernice Skeen Miller who preceded him in death on April 23, 2015. He was also preceded in death by his parents; son, Carlas Thompson; and four sisters, Lovie Tyndall, Edna Brock, Dorothy Honeycutt, and Clara Lee Honeycutt.

Surviving are his children, Kathy Annette Turbyfill and husband Joe of Trinity and Roger Thompson and wife Jean of Nashville, NC; four grandchildren, Heather Leigh Jackson, Christopher Carl Thompson, Jared Lee Turbyfill and wife Elizabeth Harwell, and Justin Allen Turbyfill and significant other Dakotah Moore; four great grandchildren, Robby Carol Shaw, Angel Elizabeth Shaw, William Thomas Jackson, and Weston Atlas Thompson; two sisters, Ruth Honeycutt and Marie Spell; special friend and companion, Audrey Atkins; and special friend and caregiver, Marsha Southard.

A service to celebrate Mr. Miller’s life will be held at 2 pm Friday, June 29 at Thomasville Church of God with Pastor Alan Greene and Pastor Joe Beane officiating. Burial will follow in Holly Hill Memorial Park Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 6 until 8 pm Thursday, June 28 at Thomasville Funeral Home.
