Maria Julianna Miller, 19, of Linton, IN passed away peacefully in her sleep at home on January 28, 2021. She was born July 9, 2001 in Linton, IN to Gerald Miller and Connie (Gamble) Miller.

Survivors include her parents, Gerald & Connie Miller of Linton, IN; brother, Rob “Bubby” Miller (Jessica) of Bloomfield, IN; niece, Brooklynne Miller; nephews, Ryne Miller and Coalton Miller; special aunt & uncle, Linda & Ronnie Burris of Jasonville, IN.

From the moment Maria entered their lives, her mom and dad were completely devoted to her. She was their world. Her every wish was their command. There was so much to love about Maria, but her smile was what drew you to her and she had a smile for everyone. Maria never met a stranger, once you met her, you never forgot her. To know her was to love her. Maria had many challenges in her life, while cerebral palsy limited her use of her hands, it did not stop her from using her feet and toes. She and her “twinkle toes” had her cruising around in her wheelchair causing mischief and mayhem quite often. Special thanks to Maria’s homeschool teacher, Paulette Lannan, Hoosier Home Health Care, and all of Maria’s special nurses. Our hearts are hurting, but we will always be forever grateful that God blessed us with her for 19 years. We Love you Puddin Pop.

Arrangements are entrusted to Michael W. Cox, Cox Funeral Home; 218 South Meridian Street; Jasonville, Indiana. Visitation is scheduled from 11 A.M. to 1 P.M. Monday at the Funeral Home. Funeral Services are 1 P.M. Monday, February 1, 2021 with Christian Burris officiating.

Interment will be at Peavey Cemetery in Howesville, IN.
