LaDeane Miller, 71, of Boise, passed away on Tuesday, July 2, 2013 from Dementia/Parkinson’s related illness.
LaDeane was born on June 23, 1942 in Rupert, Idaho the third of eight children born to Marion and Bessie Allen. She graduated from Minico High School in 1960, and married Harvey Miller on October 15, 1960. There they had 2 children. They traveled all over the states in the early years because of Harvey’s job. Then settled in Boise in 1969. LaDeane ran and managed 2 Boys In n Out on Overland until they sold it and then went to work for an insurance company as a clerical worker.
They enjoyed camping and motorcycle riding in the summer and snowmobiling in the winter. Then the race cars came where they spent every weekend at Meridian Speedway for 15 years. She could turn a wrench on the race car almost as good as Harvey. They also enjoyed going to a few NASCAR races, Daytona 500, Riverside, CA, Las Vegas, and for 15 plus years Phoenix with family and friends. They became snowbirds at retirement and eventually bought their own lot in Casa Grande, Az. They enjoyed golfing after retirement and when she could not golf anymore she would ride along beside Harvey in their golf cart.
She is survived by her husband, Harvey of 53 years; son, Cory & (Pam) Miller; daughter, Laurie & (Doug) Griffith; 8 grandchildren, Oren & (Cinthia) Miller (Sgt. USMC), Katrina Miller, Andrew Miller, Jessica Miller, Corilee Miller, Brooke Griffith, and Travis Griffith; sister, Juanita & Ron Fewkes; four brothers, E.M. “Butch” Allen, Darell & (Sara) Allen, Gregory & (Liliana) Allen, and Loren & (Susan) Allen, and numerous nieces and nephews.
LaDeane was preceded in death by her father and mother, a sister, Billie Wrigley, and an infant brother, Ricky.
The family would like to thank St. Luke’s Hospice with a special thanks to Pam Harris.
