Susan Oliver-Miller
OBITUARY
Susan Oliver-Miller passed away following a courageous battle with complications from pancreatic cancer.
Born in San Diego to Austin Oliver and Margaret Ann Turner, she grew up in National City, graduated from Sweetwater High School in 1969, attended Southwestern College, and went on to earn a degree in Psychology from Columbus College in Georgia, class of 1975.
Susan dedicated her career to social work and supporting her community. Her compassionate work spanned roles with the First UU Church of San Diego, Catholic Charities, and the County of San Diego–leaving a lasting, positive impact on countless lives.
Beyond her professional life, Susan was the self-proclaimed “Queen Bee” of puzzles. She found joy in reading, gardening, and mahjong, and she loved live performances and traveling.
She is survived by her loving spouse, Nick Miller; daughters, Kelly Hutton (m. Thida Ky) and Sarah Oliver-Miller (m. Tony Gonzalez); stepchildren, Jenny Miller and Jeff Miller; and her cherished grandchildren, Gray Miller-Hecht, Charlotte Bullock, and Anthony Gonzalez.
A celebration of Susan’s beautiful life will be held on August 1, 2026, at 2:00 PM at the First UU Church of San Diego (4190 Front St, San Diego, CA 92103). Condolences and memories may be shared with the family at the reception to follow.
