Sally Ann Miller, 62

December 17, 2019

Sally Ann Miller, 62, of Lititz, passed away, Tuesday, December 17, 2019, at Hospice & Community Care, Mt. Joy, following a courageous battle with cancer. She was the loving daughter of the late John Henry Riker and Geraldine Virginia (Habel) Riker. Sally was the loving and faithful wife of Michael K. Miller, with whom she celebrated 41 years of marriage.

Sally was a 1975 graduate of J.P. McCaskey High School. A homemaker, Sally loved making her home inviting and comfortable with her interior decorating skills. She enjoyed gardening and floral arranging, antiquing, and traveling with Mike to Nantucket, Delaware and New Jersey shores, and Historical sites such as Williamsburg. She found great joy in her dogs, Luke, a Yellow Lab, Sierra, a Bernese Mountain Dog, and Moose, a Chocolate Lab. More than anything else, Sally loved her husband and family.

In addition to her husband, Sally is survived by two sisters: Susan M. Krall, wife of Howard, of Oley, and Barbara L. Martin, of Cornwall. She is also survived by eleven nieces and nephews. Sally is preceded in death by her precious daughter, Abby Mae Miller, who died in 2005, and her parents-in-law, Charles E. and Anna M. (Gibbons) Miller.

Funeral Services for Sally will be held at 11AM, Friday, December 27, 2019, at Bachman Snyder Funeral Home & Crematory, 7 S. Decatur St., Strasburg, PA 17579. Family and friends will be received at the funeral home from 9:30AM to 11AM for a time of visitation. Interment will follow at Middle Octorara Cemetery, Quarryville. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that contributions in Sally’s memory be made to: The SPCA, The Ronald McDonald House, or to the American Cancer Society.

While I did not get to know Sally as much I would have liked to. There is no doubt God found an excellent spouse, soulmate and friend for Mike.  He joyfully obeyed and followed his heart. Forty-one years is a wonderful legacy.  Sally will be waiting for us all to hold the ultimate reunion

Sally was a wonderful friend in high school. We shared classes together and many laughs. My prayers to you Mike. I regret I am in Central America working and can not support you as you celebrate Sally’s life and entrance into the arms of Jesus
