Peggy was a woman of boundless energy and diverse passions, a true "renaissance woman" of the outdoors and the home alike. She was perhaps happiest when her hands were busy, whether she was meticulously tending to her vibrant garden or artfully preparing a meal for her family in the kitchen. An avid angler, Peggy found peace by the water with a fishing pole in hand, yet she was just as comfortable in her workshop stripping copper, a testament to her practical, hardworking spirit. When it was time to unwind, she could often be found sharpening her mind with a challenging crossword puzzle or, most importantly, doting on her beloved grandchildren. To Peggy, life was a beautiful collection of simple pleasures, and she poured her heart into every hobby and every person she loved.

She was preceded in death by her Husband, Loranzie Miller; Son, Tommy Maxwell; Father, Prentiss Carl Kaufman; Mother, Willie Bell Elliott Kaufman; Brother, Pete Kaufman; Sister, Betty Polk.

She is survived by her two Daughters, Leah Miller, Amanda Miller; one Brother, Freddie Kaufman; seven Grandchildren, Courtney Lemus (Julio), Crystal Blackwell, Blake Maxwell (Haley), Cory Maxwell, Tray Tippitt, Zeak Miller, Arianna Boone (Brian); twelve Great Grandchildren; two Great Great Grandchildren; one Daughter-In-Law, Cindy Maxwell; Special Friend, Betty Raiford; and a host of Nieces, Nephews and friends.

Mrs. Miller will be carried to her final place of rest by those honored to serve as Pallbearers; they include: Cory Maxwell, Zeak Miller, Blake Maxwell, Bryan Miller, Julio Lemus. Honorary pallbearers will be Andy Miller, Tray Tippit, and Adrian Raiford.
