Miller family

L&L 1947-2: With the Lord: "Mrs. Alice Miller, wife of James Miller of Central Park Gospel Hall, Burnaby, B.C., was granted her desire to go to be with her Lord on November 28 after a lingering illness at the age of 62. Saved early in life and fellowshipped with the Lord's people at Walsall, England, before leaving for Calgary, Canada. Was in happy fellowship there previous to going to Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan in 1926, where she bore a consistent testimony for her Lord and enjoyed showing hospitality to the Lord's servants. Sickness necessitated going to Burnaby. The manifested grace given to her in her closing days on earth will never be forgotten. D.L. Pollock and J. Cochrane gave words of comfort and warning to the large company present.
