  Ms. KAPTUR. Mr. Speaker, I rise to remember the life of Fred Miller 
of Toledo, Ohio. Passing from this life at the age of 88, Fred lived 
life to the fullest.
  Fred Miller was born on March 28, 1925 to Mattie and Roy Miller. A 
lifelong Toledoan, he graduated from DeVilbiss High School in 1943 and 
soon followed graduation with service in the U.S. Army Air Corps in 
Europe until after World War II. Upon his return home, he enrolled in 
the University of Toledo where he graduated in 1949 with a degree in 
electrical engineering. A few months later he married his wife Dorothy. 
Dorothy and Fred were married 64 years and together raised three sons.
  Fred Miller built his career at the Toledo Edison Company, giving the 
company 38 years of service.
  A man of faith and service to others, Fred was an active member of 
Aldersgate United Methodist Church where he served on the finance 
committee for many years. He also found time to serve as a Boy Scout 
leader.
  Retirement saw Fred furthering his skills as an angler, fishing all 
over North America from Alaska to the Florida Keys. He and Dorothy were 
fortunate to travel the world. He was also able to indulge in his 
hobbies of photography and building model airplanes.
  Fred Miller was a loving husband, father and grandfather. He was a 
man who gave fully to his family, his faith and his community. May 
those who loved him find peace in the memory of his spirit and the 
imprint he leaves on their lives.
