Mary was born on January 11, 1947 in Jackson, Mississippi to the late Clyde William Miller Sr. and Mary Helen Nunnery Miller. She and her family moved to the Upstate in 1997. The oldest of 2 children, she cherished her relationship with her brother. Mary devoted her career to working as a Ophthalmic Technician. In her free time, she loved singing in her church and sweet harmonies with her friends. She volunteered at the food pantry and was a part of the Women of The Way at the Cafe Connection in Pickens. Mary was a woman of deep faith, had a broad, generous spirituality, and was dedicated to her church and faith community. One of her greatest joys was spending time with her grandson, Tristin Jade Lloyd.
Mary was a caregiver and a spirit-lifter, an angel praying over our lives. She will be greatly missed, but her legacy of love will live on with those whose lives she touched.
She is survived by her daughter: Mary Shea Lloyd of Portland, OR; one brother: Clyde William "Bill" Miller Jr. (Bonnie); one grandson: Tristin Jade Lloyd; one daughter-in-law: Elizabeth Lloyd.
In addition to her parents, Mary was preceded in death by her son: Lewis Jacob Lloyd.
