Obituary for Grace I. "Jackie" Miller (Snyder)
Grace “Jackie” (Snyder) Miller, of Centerport, died peacefully Wednesday, June 1, 2022 in her home with her daughters by her side. Grace was born on New Year’s Eve 1933 to M. Truman and Edna M. (Dunkelberger) Snyder in Mohrsville, PA. She graduated from Perry High School in 1951 and from the Reading Business Institute in 1953.
