| As the television announcer at
Greene County Tech I have had the opportunity to work with Greg at several
ball games. He had a passion for what he did and was more than willing to
help out. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Miller family in their time
of loss. Blake Guinn |

Greg was a super friend and loved a good conversation and laugh! We will miss him terribly. Our sympathy to his children and his mother, whom he loved so dearly. He will not be forgotten. He was truly a kind hearted man, and would give anyone anything they needed without question. Our loss is heaven's gain. Greg, WE MISS YOU! Kim
and Milton Phillips, Paragould. |

| I had the honor and privelege of working with Greg
several times during the basketball season on NearSports Radio. He had a
great passion for sports, and done a fantastic job! The times I worked with
him, I always had hope that I would one day been as good as him. There is no
doubt he will be missed. My prayers go out to his family in this terrible
time. Austin Zamora Caraway |

As the District Administrator of Little League
in this area and a Announcer on Near Sports Radio, I found Greg to be a
fiend to youth sports and kids everywhere. He was always eager to find
ways to support the kids and to bring attention to the the youth of
Northeast Arkansas. I will miss a great partner and the youth of the area
will miss a great supporter. My thoughts and prayers goes out to the
Millers.

My name is Shane Smith, and I was always be indebted to Greg Miller for putting a temporarily retired play by play announcer back in the booth. After being off air for a year, Greg took a chance and hired me to be the voice of the Badgers on NEARSports. One thing that immediately struck me about Greg was that he shared the same passion for high school sports and announcing that I had. Greg and I had many conversations not just about the Badgers, but about other high schools and about life. Despite my never doing internet radio before, Greg never gave up on me and was nothing but optimistic and kind as I made the conversation from FM radio to internet radio. Greg was very passionate about his family and bragged on his son and daughter often. I could tell that he was extremely proud and for good reason. I’ll never forget Greg and what he done for me, both personally and professionally. He will never be forgotten. I will keep Greg’s family in my thoughts and prayers. Shane Smith, voice of the Beebe Badgers |

We are devastated to hear of Greg's death. We
will miss Greg's sense of humor, warm smile, competitive nature, but most
of all his friendship. We are fortunate to have known Greg and to have
been able to spend many memorable days with him. Heaven must of needed
someone remarkable to have taken him so unexpectedly!!
We can only imagine what a difficult loss this
will be for Lindi, Chris, and Greg's mother. No comfort is adequate for
such a loss. Our deepest sympathies are with the family. We share your
sorrow.
Memories Are Forever,
The Hargrove Family

| There are no words to describe the sorrow I feel tonight. I worked with Greg for many years and he slowly became my best friend and confidant, while I became his #1 fan. Many of you that listened to his games may recall him speaking to me over the air while I was back in the "studio" eating shrimp and ice cream, teching and recording his games. His voice and commentary were both exciting and soothing at the same time. He painted a picture for us and brought the games to life inside our homes. And at the end of every game, he'd say to me, "It's time to say goodnight Gracie.” Now, sitting here with my heart ripped apart from the loss of my dearest friend, it’s time for me to say "Goodnight Harry" I miss you already. I love you dearly, Gracie

NEARsports.com and all of the northeast Arkansas sports community has lost an invaluable piece of its history and its community. Greg Miller's loss is deeply felt, and he will be missed tremendously. David Grim
I am so very sorry to hear of this devastating
news. I never knew Greg but I do know of his kindness and concern for
my granddaughter, Ashley. After reading the many posts on this website,
I have a very good picture of the character and integrity of this
wonderful person who left you too soon. Please know that I will light a
candle in his memory and pray for the healing of the family and friends
he left behind.
Sincerely,
Linda Herbert Blair

I didn't know Greg very long, but I liked him very much and he was my
friend. He had a bright light in his personality and made me laugh
alot. He will be greatly missed. I will miss him teasing us on the
live broadcasts, making us smile. But I'll mostly just miss him.
With Deep Sorrow,
Kim Morgano
