Timmy David Miller

August 1, 1975 — December 15, 2022

Timmy David Miller, 47, of Adamsville, Tennessee, passed away on Friday, December 16 from complications after having the flu in the week prior. Born in Corinth, Mississippi, he was the son of Bennie and Sue (Berry) Miller. Timmy was the loving and devoted partner to Sherry Heaton.

From the time Timmy was born. He was a big personality and a joy to be around. Being his parents' first and only child- Timmy was the apple of his Mama Sue's eye. And Tim was the perfect little fella to learn all about hunting, horses, and the outdoors from his Daddy. He grew up next door to his Granny Mollie and lived just a stones' throw from some special cousins. From the time he could walk, he was romping that homeplace on three-wheelers and horses, cap-guns a'blazin'. If there was a rule ever set, Timmy loved to see if he could bend it. But somehow it would end up being a big ole time that usually involved a story and a lot of laughs.

Timmy graduated from Adamsville High School in 1993. That big personality not only made him a favorite among his classmates but Timmy made friends in school that he still spoke to daily even decades later. Aside from his love of horses and hunting, Timmy also picked up welding from his Daddy. He was an excellent welder, but would tell you very quickly that he'd rather be duck hunting.

Along his journey, Timmy met Sherry and in one another they found a partner. They had some good times and made some wonderful memories together. Timmy had a special relationship with Sherry's children- Tyler, Trisha and Whisper. And Sherry's grandchildren Whitley Grace and DayLyn lovingly referred to Timmy as "TT".

Timmy rode horses and made lots of memories with lots of friends. He stomped the creeks and collected arrowheads. But the greatest collection he ever managed, was a big group of family and friends that will always have some big story about Tim, Timmy or "Miller". He will be greatly missed, but will never be forgotten. It would be his wish that you remember the biggest, grandest story of him and tell it every chance you get.

He is survived by his parents, Ben and Sue Miller of Adamsville, TN; partner, Sherry Heaton of Adamsville, TN; aunts and uncles, Jim Miller (Deborah) of New York, FL, Joe Berry (Judy) of Bolivar, TN, James Berry (Dora) of Middleton, TN; cousins, Charlene Caraway, Keith Rose, Kristi Sweat Kimbley, Tom Berry, and Annette Berry Shiver; and an abundance of close friends.

He is preceded in death by his paternal grandmother, Mollie Miller; maternal grandparents, R.G and Lillie Mae Berry.
