Edna was preceded in death by father Frank Miller and mother Mary Miller and her sister Rosemary Miller.
Growing up in Troy and later Oswego, New York, she was involved in many musical productions (Sound of Music, Oklahoma and La Traviata to name a few) as well as her church choir. In Alabama she was active in the adult choir of Frazer United Methodist Church. For many years, she worked in the payroll department of the City of Montgomery. A fan of talk radio, she also enjoyed afternoon game shows and HGTV. Edna loved to cook from grocery shopping to finished meals. But more than anything else she delighted in her grandchildren.
