Carl Glenroy Miller

Miller, Carl Glenroy – Born in Lantz in 1931, Carl Glenroy Miller passed away peacefully at home at the age of 90 on March 31st, 2022.

Carl was predeceased by his parents, Charles “Charlie” Miller and Florence “Flora” (Green) Miller; sisters, Grace (James) Draycot, Shirley Blois, Marie (Robie) Ashley, Joan (John) Haynes; brothers, Harry (Blanche) Miller, Hector Miller.

Surviving Carl is his wife of 69 years, Joyce Harriet (Newman) Miller; son, Robert (Patricia) Miller, daughters, Wendy (Richard) Isenor, Laura Miller and Lisa (Steven) Tully; grandchildren, Nicole (James) MacDonnell, Natasha (David) Benjamin, Shannon (Valerie) Isenor, Amy (Ronnie) Trowsdale, Suzanne (Dirk) Taylor, Tyler (Miranda) Miller, Brandon Smith, Raynah Tully, Cassidy Tully & Madison Tully; four great-grandchildren and six great great-grandchildren.

Carl was a caring father and grandfather who, except for a brief time in Ontario, spent his whole life providing for his family in Lantz where he was a well known and loved member of the community.  

He started his trucking career with Leo Isenor for approximately 10 years, then he went on to receive many safety awards and recognition for 1 million and 2 million miles driven while spending 25 years as a truck driver for LE Shaw. During that time Carl had many ride-along passengers who later followed his footsteps in the trucking business.

Carl had a passion for draft horses from his time working with them as a boy and would never turn down an opportunity to see his favourite Percheron or Clydesdale breeds at exhibitions and shows.

A fan of carefully mixed Captain Morgan white rum and coke, in his younger years Carl and Joyce attended many dances in the areas surrounding Lantz.

When it came to trucks (and cars) nothing could beat a Ford for Carl.

Carl loved visits from his grandchildren and liked to reminisce about the old days working with horses and trucking logs in a 1943 Ford one ton.  He had many friends he met over the years of trucking and at horse shows and was always a modest gentleman who loved a good conversation about whatever was on your mind.

He will be sadly missed by his family and friends and we hope those who knew him well will have a toast to Carl.

Born in Toronto to Linda and Ernest Doyle before moving back home to Nova Scotia, Kim grew up in the Bedford/Sackville area and spent a lot of time in Moser River. She graduated from Duncan MacMillan High School as valedictorian in 1985, the same year which she married Terry Findlay. She went on to study travel and tourism in Halifax, and worked for a number of years at Liscomb Lodge. She then took a position at Credit Union Atlantic. She and Terry had two boys, Kyle and Kane who she said are equally handsome, and were her whole world.

Kim (or ‘Chickie’ as she was known), married her loving husband, Mike Young in 2006. Kim ran a successful bookkeeping business until the end of her life. Along with Mike, they also ran their own construction company, Birkshire Developments, for over 20 years, living in Musquodoboit Harbour where they built their dream home in 2018.

All of whom love her deeply.

Kim volunteered on the Twin Oaks Hospital Foundation board for many years as treasurer, as well as with the Musquodoboit Harbour and Area Chamber of Commerce. She believed in giving back to the community– a lesson she would instill in her boys. She enjoyed baking and was well known for her famous cookies. She had a green thumb and would spend hours working on her flower beds. She loved spending time with the ‘girls’, Linda, Rhonda, Wendy, and Tammy as well as many other dear friends. In her final years she also took up quilting at home by the lake (with lots of help from the dogs). 

Kim will be deeply missed by all who knew her, especially Mike and her boys.

The family would like to thank the nurses and palliative care team, as well as Northwood Homecare for the assistance in the final weeks. 

There will be no funeral as per Kim's wishes, however a Celebration of Life will be held for friends and family on June 11th in their home.
