Zane Allen Miller Jr.

Age 45, of Minerva, died Sunday, March 13 ^th at Aultman Hospital following a sudden illness.  He was born Nov. 16, 1976 in East Liverpool to the late Zane and Judy (McKenzie) Miller Sr. He works at Imperial Metal in Minerva.

He is preceded in death by his mother and father Zane and Judy Miller and sister, Emily Miller. He is survived by his wife of 28 years, Brandi (Edmond) Miller whom he married Dec. 2, 1994, 5 children, Britanie Miller, Zane Miller III, Ryan Miller, Richard Miller, and Lindsey Miller, two grandsons, Alan (dad; Zane/ mom; Cassandra) and Ronnie Miller (dad; Richard/ mom; Hannah), 2 sisters, Belinda and Adrian Miller and many nieces and nephews.

His death was abrupt and tragic, but it's his life and the memories he created that he will be known for and remembered by. Zane enjoyed wrestling and football. His favorite team was the Pittsburgh Steelers. Football, though, was his favorite sport. He did enjoy running track as teenager as well. Zane enjoyed and loved music and singing. As a teen he played drums and tried to be a band with friends for a time. Rock, classic rock now, is his favorite. Zane will be remembered by his dad jokes, his childhood stories, his crazy ideas, his dancing, his drunk singing nights, and so much more through pictures, videos, and his family. Zane Miller will be missed, and always loved.

Funeral services will be Friday at 3:00 pm in the Gotschall-Hutchison Funeral Home in Minerva with Chaplain Larry Karlen officiating.  Calling hours will be 2 hours prior to services from 1-3 pm at the funeral home.
