Nancy E. Miller of Campbellsville, daughter of the late I. L. Miller and Mallie Graham Miller, was born September 17, 1916, in Taylor County, Kentucky.
She died at 11:29 A.M., Tuesday, September 27, 2016 in Campbellsville.
Age: 100
She professed faith in Christ and was a member of First United Methodist Church.

She was a retired law librarian with Ohio State University and had been offered a position with Harvard School of Law but declined due to their requirement of mandatory retirement at age 70. Ohio State University later required her to take retirement at age 70, much to her chagrin.
