Delores Miller Obituary
March 12, 2025
Delores Ann (Hemminger) Miller, 76, passed away the evening of Wednesday, March 12, 2025, quietly at her home, with her husband at her side. She has been battling Huntington's Disease for the past three years. Known to her friends as Dee, she was born and raised in Dixon, IL. Delores graduated from Dixon High School in 1966 and went on to graduate from the Lutheran Hospital School of Nursing, Moline, IL in 1969.
