And his wife,
Beulah Stubbs Miller
December 8, 1926 - June 10, 2022

Beulah Nadine Miller of Melbourne, AR went to be with the Lord and her late husband, GH Miller Jr on June 10th, 2022, at the ripe age of 95 years, 6 months, and 2 days. Beulah was of the Baptist Faith and loved her bible. She was a lifelong, faithful member to Melbourne First Baptist Church where she volunteered and loved others. She will be loved and missed by all the lives she has touched.

Beulah was born on December 8th, 1926, to the late John and Hetty Stubbs. She grew up with 2 brothers and 5 sisters. She was smart, beautiful, and loved her family and friends.

At the age of 16 years old, she began teaching, which she would tell you: "It wasn't for me." Beulah went on to attend one semester of college and decided being a Homemaker was her calling. She was a long-time member of the Redbud EHC and Redbud Eastern Star. She pursued different business opportunities over the years, but took most pride in being a wife, raising her boys, and being the Best Granny, anyone could have.

Beulah met GH when she was 18 years old in Melbourne, AR. GH left for the service, but as soon as he returned, she knew she wanted to marry him. GH and Beulah were united in marriage on June 22nd, 1946. They were madly in love and had 2 boys, Steve and Marcus Miller.

Beulah lost her husband of 42 years on June 11th, 1988, to a terrible accident. Beulah never remarried and stayed faithful to the love of her life. She told others "I never met anyone better than what I had, so why would I lower my standards." This is just one of life lessons that she taught us.

She is survived by her two sons, Steve Miller and wife Mattie Carol; Marcus Miller and wife Retha; 5 Grandchildren, Angel Scherry (Stephen), Greg Miller, Jason Miller (Tonya), Mandy Hunt (Shawn), Lukas Miller (McKee); 11 Great-Grandchildren and a host of other family and very good friends.

She is proceeded in death by her husband, Greene Hightower (GH) Miller Jr, her parents, 2 brothers, 5 sisters, a daughter in law, Phyllis and other special family members and friends.

Visitation will be held Sunday, June 12th, from 1-2 P.M., at Eddies Family Funeral Home in Melbourne, AR.

Graveside services will be held immediately after at the Melbourne Cemetery.
