It is with deep love and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of John (Bud) P. Miller, Jr, a devoted husband, cherished father, and proud grandfather, who left this world on November 14, 2025 at the age of 78.

Born on October 9, 1947 in Louisville, KY, Bud built a life defined by integrity, hard work, and a deep dedication to his family. He shared 57 years of marriage with his beloved wife, Janet, forming a partnership rooted in love, loyalty, and mutual support.

An entrepreneur, Bud was the founder and owner of Productions Technologies, a company he built with vision, determination, and pride. His work ethic and commitment to excellence earned him the respect of colleagues, clients, and friends alike.

Bud was the loving father of Tricia (Dave) Budach and Kristen Miller (Brian Lauer), who will forever carry his strength, compassion, and humor in their hearts. He was also a devoted grandfather of four, Alison, Megan, Nate, and Katie—each of whom brought him immeasurable joy and fulfillment. His eyes lit up when he spoke of them, and he treasured every moment spent cheering them on, offering gentle guidance, or simply being present. Dear uncle of many nieces and nephews.

In his free time, Bud found happiness in the activities he loved most—softball, bowling, and golf. Whether he was competing on the field, sharing laughter at the bowling alley, or enjoying a peaceful day on the golf course, he approached every game with enthusiasm and camaraderie. His easy going nature and warm spirit made him a friend to many.

Bud is preceded in death by his parents, John Sr. and Gertrude Miller, and two siblings.

A celebration of his life will be held on Saturday, November 29, 2025
