Patricia A. Miller

Patricia Ann Miller of Plover, Wis., passed away peacefully on Aug. 20, 2026, at age 90.
Pat was born Feb. 14, 1936, in Cedarburg, Wis., to Lawrence and Miranda Bradley. She grew up in Port Washington, Wis., and graduated from Port Washington High School in 1954.
On May 25, 1957, Pat married Fred J. Miller of Belgium, Wis. They met at a dance hall, and she told Fred that he would need to learn to polka, which he sure did. They settled in Port Washinton and Pat became a homemaker, devoted to Fred and raising their children. She worked from home as a dispatcher and administrator for F.J. Miller Gravel Supply for many years.
Pat and Fred began traveling the United States by RV in 1977. They traveled to 49 states by motor home, also sneaking in a trip to Hawaii so they could say they were to every state in the union. They met many, many friends along the way, most of whom became family to them.
In 1990, they purchased a home in Fort Myers Beach, Fla., where they spent their winters together with many friends until Fred’s passing in 2012. Pat continued to winter in Florida for many more years. In 2005, they settled in Plover, Wis., to be near their youngest grandchildren.
After Fred’s passing, Pat became active at her parish and volunteering for a local charity and hospital. As she grew older, her heart could not keep up with her will, but she never really accepted her age, keeping her young. She enjoyed baking, reading, crafts and spending time visiting with her friends and family.
Pat is survived by her children Brenda (Pat) Siegrist, Brian (Luke Orosco) Miller and Jennifer (Scott) Miller; grandchildren Kimberly (Brandon Rohloff) Westenburger, Katie (Justin Duchow) Miller, Mitch, Sami and James Miller; great-granddaughters Denali, Rowan and Sawyer; great-grandson Colt; brother Lawrence Bradley; and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband Fred, son-in-law Jason Charapata, brother and sister-in-law Eugene and Helen Bradley and sister-in-law Sandra Bradley.
The family wishes to thank the staff of Aspirus Wausau Hospital Cardiac ICU for their exceptional care and compassion. Pat lived an active, full and wonderful life and will be deeply missed by many.
A Mass of Christian Burial for Pat will be held at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 26, 2026, at St. Bronislava Catholic Church, 3200 Plover Rd., Plover. Visitation will be held at the church from 9 a.m. until the service. Burial will follow in the parish cemetery.
Pisarski Funeral Homes are honored to be serving the Miller family.
