William David "Dave" Miller

William David "Dave" Miller, 59, passed away peacefully with his family by his side, Tuesday, December 14, 2021 at his home in Rock Springs, Wyoming. Dave was a resident of Rock Springs, Wyoming for the past 27 years and former resident of Modesto, California.

He was born January 23, 1962 in Modesto, California; the son of William "Bill" Miller and Rae Ann Drury.

He married Mary Moneyhun May 2, 2009 in Rock Springs, Wyoming.

Dave started his career off working on naval ships off the coast of California. After having children and moving to Wyoming, his second to none workmanship continued as Dave worked in a few local welding shops. Nothing came across his path that he couldn't handle. He was always proud of the work he put out. Dave wore his heart on his sleeve and his family and friends knew it. He always had advice for anyone, weather they asked for it or not. His wife, children, grandchildren, and dog Shelby were his pride and joy. Dave fought a short battle with prostate cancer. The cancer didn't win the battle though. When Dave passed, the cancer died too. It was a draw.
