William E. "Bill" Miller, 75, of Flatwoods, Ky., formerly of Sumner County, Tenn., died Wednesday morning, March 24, 2010, in Community Hospice Care Center in Ashland.

Bill was a very active member of the Old Union Church of Christ in Castilian Springs, Tenn., and Flatwoods Church of Christ in Flatwoods, Ky.

He loved fishing. Among others, his favorite lakes included Old Hickory Lake in Sumner County and Lake Fork in Texas. He was a self-taught artist and avid golfer. Seven months ago on the day of his diagnosis, he played 4 under par through the 15th hole during his last game at the Oaks Golf Course.
