Rusty Miller

Russell "Rusty" Wimberley Miller, 62, passed away on July 1, 2026 at North Mississippi Medical Center- Gilmore in Amory.  He was born in Amory on January 3, 1963 to Donald Hugh Miller and Sandra Malone Coker.  Rusty was a graduate of Amory High School and went on to attend Itawamba Junior College.  Rusty was a talented man, could do anything and worked for the likes of Lockheed Martin and Ingalls Shipyard.  From the age of 7, Rusty was raised by his grandmother, Nell Miller who was affectionately called "Bubba".  Rusty was bold, fearless and sometimes blunt but at the same time he was a kind hearted man who would give you the shirt off of his back.  Always erring on the side of right, Rusty always operated in integrity and truth.  He dearly loved his family, especially his children.  Rusty believed in God and was baptized at a young age at First Methodist Church in Amory.
