Geraldine Miller

Geraldine Miller began her education in the Denmark, Tennessee Public School System and attended West High School. She enjoyed home economic classes consisting of cooking, baking, health, sewing, gardening and other homemaking management areas. She confessed her belief in Jesus Christ at an early age and was baptized and joined Denmark Baptist Church in Denmark, Ten nessee. On May 06, 1966, Geraldine was united in holy matrimony to Titus Miller. The couple relocated to St. Louis, MO and raised four children, Garrett, Regina, Dorian (preceded her in death) and Tyrone. Geraldine dedicated over 30 years of service to Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU); a unit where babies go when born early, with health problems, or a difficult birth. During her work in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Geraldine enjoyed spending time with babies around the clock and supporting parents and families. She retired from Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital in February 1991, to care for her three grandchildren following the death of her daughter, Regina, from childbirth. In August 2010, Geraldine returned to the workforce as a college student advisor at St. Louis Community College-Forest Park. In this role, she collaborated and guided students with their academics, career pathway and personal issues to meet all their requirements to graduate with a degree in their field of study. Geraldine continued her spiritual journey with the Lord and joined Mount Nebo Missionary Baptist Church in 1972 under the leadership of Reverend Solomon Wilson where she was an active member of the Adult Choir, Baptist Training Union (BTU), St. Louis Progressive District Association, Sunday School Teacher, Youth Director and Woman’s Missionary Un ion (WMU) Young Adult Women. In later years, Geraldine joined Olivet Missionary Baptist Church and was a faithful member of the church. She departed this earthly life on July 29, 2024, peacefully at Christian Northeast Hospital, surrounded by a host of family and friends. Geraldine Miller leaves to cherish her memories: her husband Titus Miller; a devoted son, Tyrone Miller; six grandchildren, Cecily Young, Regina (Otha) Washington, Titus Young, Taylor Miller, Imani Miller and Kyndal Miller; three great grandchildren, Messiah Washington, Ra Washington and Titus Jr.; four siblings; Pearline Graves, Mattie Morrow, Mamie Marshall and Nellie Weddle, and a host of nephews, nieces, cousins, friends, surrogate children and church family. Among those mourning her loss are also several special friends who were like family. She loved them dearly.
