Miller and Alice Allen were united in matrimony on
September 3, 1960, at Union Mission Church,
Winston-Salem. Both were bom in the same year and
in the same city, their daughter, Debra A. Pankey, says.
They met at Dreamland Park Baptist Church, where
Alice was one of the lead soloists. Her voice mesmer
ized Miller and he was determined to get to know her.
He succeeded. Two children, eight grandchildren and
one great-grandchild have come from their union.
Miller retired from the former Duke Power
Company in 1993 after 34 years of service. Alice
retired from the WS/FC Schools system in 19% with
30 years of service. They continue to volunteer with
various organizations. They are members of the

love gardening and spending time with family.
Their children and grandchildren threw a big 50th
anniversary party in 2010. This year, the Aliens
enjoyed a more quiet celebration with dinner a movie.
