Larry Gene Miller, aged 80, passed away peacefully on October 13, 2024, at his home in St Francisville, LA. Born on May 26, 1944, Larry had a lasting impact on everyone he met.
Larry grew up in Baton Rouge, the third of five children of Eugene and Ella Miller. His childhood was spent outdoors camping, hunting, and fishing with his family. He put himself through college and while there, fell in love with his sister’s roommate, Nora. They married soon after graduation and ready to break away for adventure, Larry took a job in Phoenix, AZ. Larry and Nora loved the West and made great friends and adventures. But eventually Larry was called back home by the green trees and flowing water of South Louisiana.
He survived and thrived in the many transitions of the banking industry by offering to be of service to the next new leader. From CPA, to loan officer, to COO, to helping found the Business Bank of Baton Rouge, Larry’s colleagues speak of his great trust and belief in them to expand beyond what they saw as possible. They also tell stories of fun - how Larry infused joy into everything - even hard work.
Larry was a lifelong learner and teacher. He prided himself on being able to do it for himself, whatever “it” was. He was a voracious reader, a lover of good food, music, art, and poetry. His curiosity and knowledge made him a worldly man, despite his preference for staying close to his roots.
After retirement, he and Nora moved to St Francisville, LA, and after finding the perfect property, he worked for two years alongside his brother-in-law, Joe Johnson, to build a custom home out of Larry’s own vision. Nearly all windows, the house reflects his love of the outdoors. When Larry wasn’t entertaining his friends, you could find him watching the creek run in the back or the blueberries mature in the front with a strong cup of coffee and freshly-baked bread.
Larry was lucky in love two times in his life, in his fifty-one-year marriage to Nora and the last seven years with his girlfriend, Nanette Rothkamm. Larry is survived by his son and daughter-in-law, Michael and Jenny Miller; his daughter and son-in-law, Renee and Nicholas Moelders; his grandchildren, Arianne and Moritz; and his siblings, Lindol "Dee" Miller and Steve Miller.
In lieu of flowers, contributions in Larry’s memory can be made to the Baton Rouge Food Bank, an organization he deeply cared about. Larry's legacy of kindness, wisdom, and joy will be remembered by all who knew him.
