Charles H. Miller

Charles Henry “Charlie” Miller was born July 4, 1962 in Wahoo, Nebraska to John and Jeris (Sievers) Miller. Charlie grew up in Yutan, attending school there, and graduating from Yutan High School in 1980. Growing up, he played baseball and football, and was proud to have won the local Punt, Pass & Kick Contest. He even tried his hand at boxing, once. Only once because he was knocked out! He was also fond of riding his bike to Richard Anderson’s house, so he could play on Richard’s drum set. It was a hobby that he enjoyed for the rest of his life. Charlie spent his whole life in Yutan, and although he never married or had kids of his own, he dated Brenda Brooks for several years, and was like a father to her four kids; Morgan, Courtnie, Beau, and Dylan. He truly cared for her kids, and enjoyed coaching them in baseball, fishing with them, and teaching them how to drive. Charlie worked as a printing press operator for different print shops; Publication Printing, Husker Printing, and Wright Printing being his favorites. When not working, Charlie was the drummer in the band, Moment’s Notice, and was able to play gigs at various bars and events in the area. He was a fan of Aerosmith, and religiously followed the Huskers. His favorite movie was Blazing Saddles, but he also watched numerous documentaries. He liked BBQ or dinner at Romeo’s, but hated lint balls on his socks! Charlie will be remembered as a funny, one-of-kind guy, who had a contagious laugh. He was famous for his homemade doughnuts on Christmas morning, and he loved to go fishing, mushroom hunting, or just visiting with friends at the lake. He had a good heart, was very sympathetic to others, and was always kind and said Hi to everyone. Charlie died Saturday, May 8, 2021 at the age of 58 years, 10 months and 4 days. He was preceded in death by his father John Miller, nephew Nick Kuhl, grandparents Elmer & Erma Sievers and William & Agnes Miller.
