Chad Bradey Miller

He was a 1988 graduate of Lebanon High School, where he played football and wrestled.

Chad spent several years during high school and for a short while afterwards as a carpenter, a trade at which he was very talented. After receiving several certifications, he began employment at Westfield Utilities for three years before transferring to Zionsville Wastewater treatment facility where he spent 16 years. His carpentry skills were of notable contribution during facility upgrades for Lebanon First Church of the Nazarene ensuring preventative structural maintenance was conducted in a timely manner.

His favorite community event was spent after work in the humid summer heat and the frigid drizzle of an Indiana autumn and spanned 10 years while coaching and mentoring young athletes for Boone County Youth Football League. Chad was best known for his passionate drive, giving spirit and attention to detail. He was always very particular with his belongings and shoes were always to be left at the door. He was firm but fair with his children, always driving home the lesson of great moral character. Doing what you say and saying what you mean was especially important to Chad and he wanted his children to exemplify that trait.

Chad enjoyed spending time outside with his children fishing, hunting, camping or fixing up the house or cabin. He is survived by his wife of 16 years Michelle; children Nick Weaver, Christian Knight, Gage and Raquelle Miller; his mother Sharon Stradling; sisters, Ali (Dr. Jon) Robinson, Delaina Clark, and little brother Richard Stradling.

In addition to his father, Chad was preceded in death by a half-sister, Tracey Jo Jones.
