Noteringar

Dennis is the son of Ellen (Sponeberg) Miller and George Wesley Miller.
He grew up the youngest of three siblings on a farm near Wallace, NE.
During World War II, he was part of traveling wheat harvest with his father and brothers.
Though he graduated from high school in 1943, he was required to remain as a farmer to support the war. His love for farming remained through out his life.
On March 15-1944 he married his high school sweetheart Lucille Hise.
Lucille loved her mother in law so it made it easy for them to spend their first year of marriage living with his parents. During this year he farmed, working in a lumberyard and built his first home for his family. They had 6 children and adopted two.
Desiring a life of their own, the couple bought a small farm near Lewellen, NE and moved in the spring of 1951. Here Dennis was on the school board and helped the community decide to construct a new high school. He was also a member of the fire department.
Dennis began building homes for nearby neighbors. In 1961, he took a job with International homes and moved the family to a new home he built in Oshkosh. He and his construction team (usually a son or two)built at least 60 homes in Garden County alone. House built by Dennis extend to Wyoming, Colorado and Kansas and Nebraska.
He owned and operated the John Deere building in Oshkosh with his brother Merle.
