Service Details

Funeral services for Barbara will be private, and scheduled at a later date, per the family’s request.

Memorial Suggestions

In lieu of flowers, memorial remembrances to the family would be appreciated.

Barbara (nee: Ely) Miller, age 66, of Chicago, found peace from her third battle with cancer on October 18, 2021. Barbara was born in Chicago, on August 8, 1955, the daughter of the late Ruth (nee: Pearson) and Michael Ely.

In 1971, Barbara married Paul Edward Miller in Chicago, who preceded her in death in 2014.

For over 20 years Barbara worked as a dispatch operator for Seko Trucking, retiring in 2005.  In her free time, she loved to watch old television shows and movies, specifically the old westerns. She also loved her cats, especially “Baby,” her most recent cat that she adopted as a rescue kitten.

Left to cherish her memory is her son, Edward (Judy) Miller; and her grandchildren Kayla and Hanna.

Testimonials

The Family of Barbara Bell

Michael,

First, let me start out by saying you were a God sent working with me for many years in preparations for my mom’s Homegoing Celebration December 7, 2024. Even though this was our first time meeting in person, I felt like I already knew you. Michael, you demonstrated professionalism, empathy and, your warmth was surprising for me considering your role as a Funeral Director. Your attention to every detail, patient and support has made this process much easier for my family and me. I trusted you and you helped me find closure in a moment of great sadness, and for that we’re eternally grateful. I appreciate the time and energy you put into ensuring everything ran smoothly considering I reside in a different state. Michael, my mom would have loved you and our family is forever grateful for your unwavering dedication and support during our season of grief. May the Lord make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you. (Numbers 6:25)

Valerie Tucker and the Family of Barbara Bell
