Eva Karla Miller, 88, of San Diego and South Ogden, passed away at her home, July 8, 2019, with her family by her side. Eva was born to the late Vaclav Karel and Anna Marie Wichera on May 5, 1931 in Prague, Czechoslovakia. The family immigrated to the United States and settled in New York City where she graduated from Julia Richmond Girls High School, NYC, May 1949. Eva's wanderlust led her to enlist in the United States Air Force. Assigned to Larsen AFB, Moses Lake, WA, she met and married SSgt Johnny R Miller on May 5, 1950 and military tours allowed them to travel extensively with their three daughters in tow.
Eva is survived by her daughters: Christina Buckner (Timothy), of Ogden; Caren Miller-Lazarz (Robert), of Layton; and Carla Pressley (Scott), of Encinitas, California, her grandson Brendan Buckner (Marissa), of Salt Lake City and granddaughter Dana Pressley (Jake), of Encinitas.
