This property was my family’s property: Miller. The home to the right was built in 1928 by Harry A. Miller Sr & wife Sadie. Son Harry Jr. (AKA ‘Tiny’) was raised there. The home was a rental property for a few years, managed by Harry Sr’s daughter-in-law, Cora. Tiny’s only child, daughter Felecia and 1st husband Galen Bortner owned it in early 1980s. It was sold to non-family member when Felecia & Galen built a new home to the left (south side) of garage further up the hill (1986) (Sold 1996). The Garages property shown was owned by and the business of Tiny Miller: ‘Harry A Miller Jr New & Used Cars’. Business ran late 40s or early 50s until his passing 1969. He sold cars, did auto painting & towing and employed mechanics. He had a reputation of being friendly, honest, and generous. The lower, smaller garage was the original with larger one added later (probably early 60s). The smaller one displayed antique cars on upper floor (large window wall) and was torn down late 80s. Tiny’s widow rented garage to various businesses after Tiny’s passing . Always interested in stories and memorabilia from my dad’s business & friends. - Felecia A Miller Lundgren
