    IN THE CARE OF Westmount Memorial Celebration Centre

    James Donald Millar, 24 December, 1921 \endash 26 May, 2018

    Don Millar, who resided at the Sunshine Centre at Luther Village in Waterloo, died early Saturday, May 26, 2018, at the age of 96 in his own home in the comforting presence of a dear friend.

    Don was a man of great good cheer, quick with a joke, a poem or song, a witty remark, and a smiling greeting.

    Don was born December 24, 1921, in Wilmot Township to Frederick and Ida Millar. Predeceased by his wife Doreen (nee Hood), his elder brother Douglas (Anne), his younger brothers Robert (Elsie), Frederick, and Roderick, and his brother-in-law Laurie (Pam) Hood.

    Survived by his younger sisters Louisa (the late Gordon Moir) and Bertha (the late Bob Landers), sisters-in-law Janet Millar and Alice (Harvey Sauder) Millar, and brother-in-law Albert "Sonny" (Janine) Hood.

    Dear Uncle Donald is remembered with great fondness by many nieces and nephews. Although Don and Doreen had no children of their own, their honourary daughter Shelley (Brian) Helmling had a special place in Don's heart.

    Don grew up on the family farm on Highland Road on the west side of Kitchener. He served as a conscientious objector during WWII and worked as an electrician with the Waterloo public school board. In retirement he and Doreen spent many summers at their cottage, "Millar's End", on Sky Lake in the Bruce Peninsula where countless happy memories were created with visiting family and friends. Don enjoyed oil painting, woodworking, music, poetry, the occasional sip at Happy Hour, and celebrated his Scottish heritage. Only hours before his passing, he delighted those around him with a poetry recitation from memory.

    Thanks to many kind caregivers at Luther Village who also adored Don.

    Don's family will receive relatives and friends on Sunday, June 3, 2018, from 2 \endash 4 p.m. at Westmount Memorial Celebration Centre, 1001 Ottawa St. S., Kitchener, (519-743-8900). Funeral service will be held at St. George's of Forest Hill Anglican Church, 321 Fischer-Hallman Rd., Kitchener, on Monday, June 4, 2018 at 11:00 a.m. Interment Woodland Cemetery.

    Condolences to the family, and, in lieu of flowers, donations to Doctors Without Borders, The Christian Children's Fund of Canada, or the Mennonite Central Committee would be gratefully appreciated and may be arranged through the funeral home.

    • Eby ID Number: Waterloo-147045

    Notes:

    December 23,1923 - March 4, 2021 Bright and bubbly Louisa departed this world on March 4th. One of seven children of Ida and Frederick Millar, she was predeceased by her husband Gordon Moir, her brothers and sisters-in-law Douglas (Anne), J. Donald (Doreen), Robert (Elsie), Roderick and Frederick, and brother-in-law Robert Landers. Fondly missed by her sister Bertha Landers, sisters-in-law Alice and Janet, many nieces and nephews, and "Lorne Streeter" friends. The Millar family lived on a farm on Highland Road on the outskirts of Kitchener. Louisa worked as a remarkably adept stenographer and as an office manager. She was a member of Stirling Avenue Mennonite Church where her fine alto voice made her a valued member of the choir. She enjoyed oil painting, gardening, sewing, and flower arranging. Her nieces were treated to sleepovers, dress-up, make-up, hair-dos and nail polish, and she spoiled her nephews with generous birthday and Christmas gifts and funny cards. Everyone loved her sunny smile, boisterous laugh, and distinctive fashion and decorative style. After her marriage to Gordon, Louisa moved to Burlington where they enjoyed boating in the harbour. She was considered royalty on Lorne St and was a beloved grandmother figure to multiple "princesses" on the street who visited for dress-up, tea parties, and playing with the cats. Her homemade butter tarts and Brussels sprouts with secret raspberry vinaigrette graced the table of many neighbourhood gatherings. She was popular for welcoming the Hallowe'en trick-or-treaters in her in clown wig and costume. Some years after the death of her husband, Louisa moved back to Waterloo to be closer to her family who are grateful for the care she received at Parkwood Mennonite Home and Columbia Forest Long Term Care. A private funeral will take place on Saturday, March 13, followed by interment at Woodland Cemetery. Donations in memory of Louisa to the local hospitals, SickKids Foundation, the Mennonite Central Committee, the Alzheimer's Society, or the charity of your choice would be welcomed and may be arranged via Erb and Good Funeral Home at 519-745-8445 or www.erbgood.com. So long, Kiddo!

    Elohim City, Oklahoma

    Elohim City (also known as Elohim City Inc.and Elohim Village) is a private community in Adair County, Oklahoma, United States. The 400 acres (1.6 km2) rural retreat was founded in 1973 by Robert G. Millar, a Canadian immigrant, former Mennonite and an important leader in America's Christian Identity movement, a theology common to an assortment of right-wing extremist groups.The community gained national attention for its ties to members of The Order in the 1980s and with convicted Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh in the 1990s.

    The enclave consists of approximately one dozen structures, some of them mobile homes, while others are modernistic dome houses. The center of activity is the church-community center, where residents meet for hour-long sessions each morning

    Robert G. Millar died on May 28, 2001.After his death, his second-oldest son, John Millar, became the leader of Elohim City. John Millar died on February 28, 2019......
