John Roberts Miller ’44

Body

John died on Mar. 15, 2002, in Mendham, N.J. He came to Princeton from Riverdale School and majored in politics, winning honors. Active as a crew manager, he was a member of Cloister Inn; he roomed with John Ballin and Steve Lamb.

After service in the Army, he went to Penn Law School, where he was editor-in-chief of its law review. After a stint at Sullivan & Cromwell in NYC, he formed a firm in Madison, N.J., and served as municipal counsel to Chatham, Chester, and Mendham.

His wife, Joan, survives him, as do his three daughters, three stepchildren, one grandchild, and seven step-grandchildren. We extend condolences to them all.
