In loving memory of Evelyn Miller who sadly passed away on 1st May 2022
No Funeral Service will be held in keeping with Evelyn's own wishes.

Born in Stoke St Gregory, Somerset. Maiden name Rooke.

Eve went to Bishop Fox's grammar school in Taunton before training as a teacher, and taught primary children until retirement in her mid 50's.

Married at Stoke St Gregory church July 1955 to Ken Miller of Curload, Stoke St Gregory. They had two children Philip and Catherine.

Ken and Eve loved to travel and in 1954 went youth hosteling both in the UK and Europe. They also enjoyed many years caravanning as well as other holidays.

Eve loved gardening and cookery and if she was not in the garden doing something she would be trying out a new recipe in the kitchen.

Both Eve and Ken also enjoyed bird watching.

Eve was very community minded and over the years had helped to run various groups and societies and was a member of others.

Eve and Ken started out married life in Chatham, Kent as Ken joined the police force there, but it was not long before he came back to join the Somerset and Bath constabulary, and as was the case then, this meant moving around the county with the job. Eventually they moved to their own house in Taunton and then back to Stoke St Gregory for some years before finally moving to Dorset for the last 16, near to their daughter.

Eve's ashes will finally return to Stoke St Gregory church to rest with Ken's, with a full and happy life completed.

Judith and Annie Miller donated in memory of Evelyn

In loving memory of our Aunty Eve
