Michael Anthony Miller passed away peacefully in his sleep at his home on 9-24-21 at the age of 52. He was born on 6-11-69 to Don and Donella Miller in Olympia, Washington. He was the oldest of 2 siblings-Bill Miller and Lori Delany. He attended North Thurston High School and participated in wrestling and football. In his younger years he had a career as a talented professional painter of buildings and automotive.
Mike was a simple man with a tough exterior and a big heart. He enjoyed fishing, shooting guns and reminiscing on the good ol' days with family and friends. He always had a witty one liner that would catch you off guard and make you laugh and often had random facts to share.
He was a proud father to Rachael Benson and an even prouder grandfather to Raiden Benson and Ruby Benson.
Mike marched to the beat of his own drum and lived life on his own terms. He will be lovingly missed by family and friends and joyfully reunited with his mother and grandparents.
A celebration of his life will be held at Tolmie State Park on Oct 30 at 12:00pm.
