Paul Richard Miller, 56, of Winamac passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, March 15, 2025. He was born on March 16, 1968 in Napa, California to Larry and Beverly (Strasser) Miller.

Paul was a 1986 graduate of Winamac High School and earned his degree in education from Ball State University. He was director of sales at Standard Industrial Supply in Winamac.

On December 23, 2015 he married Michelle R. Wegner.

Paul enjoyed camping, coaching, cruising around in his Jeep, working on his cars, watching the Indiana Hoosiers, and spending time with his family and friends. His greatest joy in life was supporting and watching his girls grow up into beautiful, young women.

He attended First Church in DeMotte.

Paul was loved by all that knew him. He was a very passionate man that brought so much happiness and inspiration to those around him. He was caring and kind, always willing to drop what he was doing to help someone else. Paul was a great friend, co-worker, coach, uncle, brother, son, father, and husband. May we all work to be a blessing for someone in our lives like he was in ours.
