Nancy Lee Miller

Nancy Lee Miller, 80 of Elmore, OH died Monday, May 10, 2021 at ProMedica Toledo Hospital, Toledo, OH. She was born May 21, 1940 in Antwerp, Ohio to the late Marcell and Grace (Kerns) Frasier Sr. On October 25, 1958 she married Rush Miller who preceded her in death on January 27, 1991. Nancy worked at NAMSA and BEC from 1976 through 1986 as a Microbiology Supervisor. Nancy gradually lost her hearing and was completely deaf by her mid-twenties due to osteogenesis imperfecta. She taught herself to read lips and could do it so well, many people were not aware she was deaf. She was the first person in the Toledo area to receive a cochlear implant when the procedure became available. Nancy believed in service for others. She was a volunteer at St Charles hospital for over 20 years, she was a blood donor for over 20 years, and she transcribed printed reading materials to braille for the visually impaired to read. Nancy enjoyed camping her entire life and shared that joy with her grandkids in the back yard as often as possible. She enjoyed reading books, doing crossword puzzles, and watching Jeopardy. She was always up for a trip to the casinos, playing a game of scrabble, and playing Russian Rummy for hours. She enjoyed bowling in the leagues in Elmore for many years. Nancy shared her love of cooking whether it was teaching family how to make homemade noodles, or biscuits and gravy, and would make family wedding cakes. She was a member of St. Paul- Trinity United Methodist Church, Elmore. Her greatest joy were her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
