Robert F. "Bob" Miller, age 86, of Hockessin, DE, formerly of Wilmington, passed away peacefully on Sunday, June 28, 2020 at his residence. Born in Wilmington, Bob was the son of the late Harry and Agnes (Donohue) Miller. He was a graduate of Salesianum School and the University of Delaware. He served his country proudly in the US Navy on the USS Arcadia during the Korean War. For 30 years, he worked for Delaware Importers, retiring in 1998 as the wine manager.

His memberships included the St. John the Beloved Church and formerly, Cavaliers Country Club. Sara Kenney Miller, his wife of 59 years predeceased him in 2016. Bob loved life and his family, wine, vodka straight up, good movies, a great story teller and a bon vivant—most of all, a gentle and kind man we loved.
