Charles “Charlie” M. Miller, Jr., 83, of Holland Township, NJ, passed away on Wednesday, July 30, 2025, at Hackettstown Regional Medical Center in Hackettstown, NJ.
Born on December 16, 1941, in Woodbury, NJ, Charlie grew up in Sewell, NJ before moving to Stanton, NJ, where he lived and worked on the family farm. He later moved to Allamuchy, NJ, where he continued dairy farming for 30 years, before settling in Holland Township.
A graduate of Hunterdon Central Regional High School in Flemington, NJ, Charlie was proud to have been a member of the school’s first wrestling team. He went on to work as a manager for First Student Bus Company for 30 years and, in recent years, drove school buses for the Delaware Valley Regional High School District, a role he truly enjoyed.
Charlie had a lifelong passion for agriculture and youth development. He was a dedicated member of the Mt. Airy 4-H Club in Ringoes, NJ, throughout his life. He served on the Allamuchy School Board for nine years and was a longtime member of the American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA), raising and showing prize-winning rabbits for over two decades.
Above all, Charlie was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He found great joy in supporting his sons and grandchildren, rarely missing one of their sporting events. His presence on the sidelines and in the stands was a cherished constant in their lives.
Charlie will be remembered for his dedication to his family, his tireless work ethic, and his quiet but steadfast involvement in his community.
Son of the late Charles M. Miller, Sr. and Martha C. (Shaw) Miller, Charlie is survived by his beloved wife of 60 years, Sandra L. (Sidovar) Miller, his two sons Brian Miller and his wife Tracey and Todd Miller and his wife Dawn, and his six grandchildren Samantha, Colin, Jack, Gillian, Barrett, and Bennett.
