- Obituary
SARATOGA SPRINGS - The family of Emma A. Miller gave her to the care of her Eternal Father Tuesday, April 20, 2010, at the Wesley Health Care Center on Lawrence Street.
She was 91.
Born Emma Alberta Granger on Aug. 10, 1918, in Fort Ann, she was the daughter of the late Bert and Laura Washburn Granger.
She married John Henry Miller of Saratoga Springs, and together they made their home on West Avenue where John, a veteran of both World Wars, died unexpectedly on Aug. 8, 1957. Emma continued to make a home for her family there for 50 years.
A woman of great faith and passion for God, her life was filled with the blessings of her six children, 19 grandchildren, 20 great-grandchildren, two great-great-grandchildren and her friends.
She was featured in The Saratogian newspaper on Mother’s Day in 1996 in an article titled “A mother’s heart is ... a family’s soul.”
Emma attended Lake George High School, received a GED in 1967 and later completed several courses at Adirondack Community College.
Until her husband’s death, she worked as a produce clerk at Hughes Market on Washington Street. She retired from the state of New York in 1977, where she worked as a charge therapy aide at the Wilton Division of the Rome State School.
After her retirement, she enjoyed part-time employment at the Carl Company store in the former Pyramid Mall. A gifted and self-taught musician, she played the organ at her church for many years.
She was predeceased by her parents; a daughter, Ida Harrington; two stepdaughters, Mary Jane Collins and Jesse Elkey; a son-in-law, Robert Canterbury Jr.; a sister, Dorothy Rozell; and three brothers, Roger, Stanley and Winfred Granger.
Survivors include her son, John B. (Dawn) Miller of Las Vegas; her daughters, Joyce (Allan) Waldinger and Patricia Miller, all of Saratoga Springs, Linda Canterbury of Glens Falls and Karen (James) Ernst of Wilton; her grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.
Relatives and friends may call from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, April 24, 2010, at the William J. Burke & Sons/Bussing & Cunniff Funeral Homes, 628 N. Broadway, 584-5373, followed by a celebration of her life and love at noon.
Burial will follow at the family plot in North Milton Cemetery on Route 29 in North Milton.
Memorials may be made in Emma’s name to Community Hospice of Saratoga, 179 Lawrence St.; or the Wesley Foundation, 131 Lawrence St., Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.

Soldier, 97th Battalion C. E. F., Exhibition Park, Toronto. Why he was a soldier in in the Canadian Army and his military history there is not currently known. He abandoned his family in 1928 when Tommy was an infant. It is reported that he liked to hop trains. Like his father and brother, Lester was also a barrel maker, a trade he is believed to have plied throughout the country, ultimately, perhaps, landing him in Florida. Though he was suspected of still being alive after WWII, he was declared dead in 1979 after his son, Eddie's, death. (Caples)

CHILD KILLED AS HE DARTS INTO TRAFFIC, Boy, 4, Victim of Hiawatha Boulevard Mishap---
Thomas CAPELS, 4, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lester H. Capels of 1219 Carbon street, was injured fatally late yesterday afternoon when struck by an automobile as he ran into Hiawatha boulevard east at Carbon street during the heaviest traffic period of the day. The child was placed in a car and rushed to St. Joseph hospital where he died half an hour later. Dr. J. Howard Ferguson, who assisted in the investigation by James Bennett, coroner's assistant, conducted an autopsy and reported a crushed chest and fractured neck as the causes of the boy's death. Norbert Frey of 331 Wayland road, Lynnwood, driver of the car, picked the child from the pavement, took him to the hospital and reported the accident at police headquarters. In his story of the case Frey said he left his home in Lynnwood at 5 o'clock to drive to the plant of the Muench-Kreuze Candle Co., Inc., 617 Hiawatha boulevard east, where he is employed as a night watchman. He planned to arrive a little earlier than usual he said. As he approached the intersection of the boulevard and Carbon street, the boy stepped off the curb and darted into the street. He ran between two eastbound machines and into the path of the Frey car. The car struck him and threw him aside before the driver could swerve away. Frey said traffic on the boulevard, east and westbound, was heavier than usual late yesterday afternoon and his car was forced to travel at a moderate rate of speed.
