With sadness we announce the passing of Terry Miller on June 27, 2023. Terry was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend to all.
Terry was born on September 10, 1952, to Dr. Ross and Catherine (Railey) Miller in Rochester, MN. He graduated from Riverview High School in Cape Cod, MA in 1971. He later attended Rochester Community and Technical College. In 1972, Terry began his long career at St. Marys and Mayo Clinic where he met Helen Budewitz and fell in love. Then, on April 14, 1973, in Lake City, MN, they were joined in marriage. He worked at St. Marys Hospital and Mayo Clinic for over two decades in Xray, audio visual, and general services.
Terry enjoyed his grandchildren, travel, music, movies, and watching sports (especially the Rochester Honkers and Boston Red Sox). He had a passion for people and loved sharing his life. He volunteered at the Red Cross, Rochester Youth Soccer, Rochester Civic Theater and both the Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts, as well as at his church, St. Johns.
He is survived by his wife, Helen; son Tony (Laura); a daughter Katie; grandchildren Anna, Amelia, and Margaret; and a sister, Helen Stacy (Dennis) LaBare (Greeneville, TN). He was preceded in death by his parents, Dr. Ross and Catherine Miller.
A Funeral Mass will be held at 10:00 Friday, June 30, 2023, at Co-Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist in Rochester, MN with Father John Lasuba officiating. Visitation will be held one hour prior to the service on Friday. Burial will be in St. Marys Catholic Cemetery in Lake, City, MN on Saturday, July 1, 2023 at 10:00am.

I am so sorry for your loss, he was a great guy and had a large heart and a great laugh. He had a smile that lit up the room.
I remembered Terry as a man and friend who lived in the moment, would tell a joke or two, or even talk about sports. He will be greatly missed.
I grew up with Terry and his parents were friends of my parents. Helen was always a blessing in his life and he in hers. I was always happy to see Terry periodically as we both worked at Mayo—to all his family, we send heartfelt wishes of strength in this time of loss.
I will remember Terry as a prince of a guy with a cheerful attitude and loyal Vikings fan.
