History

Edo Miller was born in Bokim, Germany, on March 11, 1880. At a young age and unable to speak English, Edo made the trip from Germany alone to join other family members who had preceded him to the U.S. He quickly learned the language and American way of life. In 1909, he purchased a furniture store in downtown Brunswick and began providing funeral services at the store.

Building a service legacy

Cambridge Room at T. Little Funeral Home & Cremation CentreIn 1911, Edo attended Gupton Jones Mortuary College in Nashville, Tennessee, and formally established Edo Miller Funeral Home in 1912. It was located at 1626 Newcastle Street, across from the Oglethorpe Hotel. Then in 1952, Edo moved the funeral home to a larger location at 1107 Gloucester Street. After his death, Edo's family continued to operate the funeral home. The words "and Sons" were added in 1956 to the funeral home's official name.

In 1965, the funeral home colors were changed to burgundy and black, a tradition we continue to this day. Edo Miller and Sons Funeral Home was restored to its original facade in 1987, and in 1994, a new building was constructed at 3321 Glynn Avenue.

Edo Miller Field 

Throughout the years, the Miller family has been committed to the Brunswick community. Edo was given credit for bringing professional baseball to Brunswick and was the president of the Brunswick Pirates Farm Club. Our baseball park was named Edo Miller Field in 1952.

"Patty, Arlie and the entire Edo Miller Staff took me and my kids under their arms and treated us and my beloved deceased wife like family. The respect, professional and unique care provided could not have been handled better. Thank you for making the worst experience of our life one of dignity, beauty and personal care. So many who attended visitation and burial service said it was the most beautiful and fitting service they'd ever experienced and I couldn't agree more. Thank you on behalf of the Miller family and friends for such personal care and service."

"I knew I wanted to go to Edo Miller, because I wanted my husband to have a funeral that showed he was an 'important person.' At least he was to me and my family. I KNEW everything would be beautiful and organized, and everything that was done was perfect! I am still astounded at the quality and quantity of the details involved, from cookies and coffee provided during the Visitation, to laminated bookmarks with his obituary on the back. The Portrait is so beautiful and is TOP Quality. I will ALWAYS refer others to Edo Miller, and will ONLY use them in the future, if the need arises. I look forward to returning to order some 'thumbprint' jewelry. I also want to thank ALL of the employees. They were all kind and respectful, and were so helpful to the entire family. But I must, most of all thank Ashley Hudson. He was ALWAYS there for me, whenever I called, answered every question, and went above and beyond in every way. I cannot express in words everything he did for me. My husband's death was a suicide, so we were all in shock and I cried non- stop for weeks. Ashley helped me through that, and I am forever grateful."

"The compassion and patience from every staff member our family encountered assured us that we chose the best facility for my father's final arrangements. At no point is a family prepared for the emotional pain of losing their loved one but Edo Miller & Son made our family feel as if we were their family. Without a doubt, any future needs for funeral arrangements for our family will be with Edo Miller."
