Darrel Reuben Miller

October 18, 1926 — September 23, 2012

Abbeville— Graveside services will be held at 10:00 a.m. Friday, September 28, 2012 at St. Paul Cemetery honoring the life of Darrel Reuben Miller, 85, who died Sunday, September 23, 2012 at Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital.

He will be laid to rest at St. Paul Cemetery with Rev. Pres Riley officiating the services.


He is survived by his daughter, Donna H. Faulk of Lafayette; two grandchildren; and seven great grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his wife of over 53 years, Mary Ethel Arabie Miller; mother, Sarah May Miller; and son, Joseph Victor "Vic" Henderson and one grandchild, Heather Renee' Faulk.

Darrel Rueben Miller, better known as “Poppee” to family and friends, was born in Urbana, MO. He served in the U.S. Army and as a Merchant Marine before taking a job with Texaco and retiring with 37 years of service.


“Poppee” was a devoted husband and father, who took such loving care of his wife until her death in 2011. He loved sitting in front of his 15 year old 22 inch television with his long time beloved dog “Sparky” watching NASCAR. “Poppee” and “Sparky” also loved going camping; his family has fond memories of their last camping trip all together for Easter. He would spend hours sharing old stories of his youth with his son-in-law Don. In his earlier years during his Birthday Month of October he would travel to Urbana, MO to visit his family. He will be greatly missed for his loving and kind heart by all that knew him.
