Troy Jack Miller, Sr., 60, passed away on April 27, 2024 at his home, in Lindsborg, Kansas.

Troy was born on May 27, 1963 in Kansas City, KS to the late James Warren and Margaret Ann (Langrehr) Miller.

Troy is survived by his wife Suzanne (Wedel) Miller of 37 years. Troy and Suzanne met while attending Hutchinson Juco where he played baseball while they both attended school. Troy would go on to graduate and transfer to Fort Hays State University where he would continue playing baseball until he earned his Bachelor's degree. This would allow him to work for 35 years as an Industrial Arts teacher and coach, including 21 years at Smoky Valley High School.

Troy is also survived by his children J. W. Miller and his wife Hannah Hemmer, T.J. Miller and his wife Kelli Miller, and Maci Locke and her husband Colton Locke; sisters: Ramona Miller and LaDonna Benscheidt; and his beautiful grandchildren: Chandler, Kendall, Remy, Wyatt and Rowe.

Troy was preceded in death by his parents and his brother: Tyler Miller.

It was Troy’s wish to be cremated and that the family would not hold any type of funeral service or celebration of life, but rather those that wished could remember him by eating at their favorite Mexican restaurant.

One of Troy’s proudest moments was the honor of having the local baseball field named after him, and it is here where the family would like to gather in his honor on Monday, May 27th, 2024 at 5:00 PM. The family would like to invite anyone who wishes to join them in remembering Troy’s unique sense of humor, larger than life personality, and unforgettable stories that made him who he was.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorial contributions may be sent to Crick-Christians Funeral Home, 103 N. Washington St. Lindsborg, KS 67456. All contributions will go to the Smoky Valley baseball program. Go Dirty Vikes!!
