Edward J. Miller, 82, of Alexandria, VA passed away peacefully Monday April 15th at home surrounded by his family.
Ed was born in Batu Gajah, Malaysia and came to the United States in 1941. He lived in Garden City, Long Island and then moved to Point Pleasant Beach when his father returned from serving in the Royal Army of Great Britain during World War II. After graduating high school, Ed serviced his country honorably in the U.S. Marine Corps. Following his discharge from the USMC, he attended Monmouth College, now Monmouth University, where he earned his Bachelor’s Degree and later his Master’s Degree in Education .
Ed was a well-loved and respected Chemistry teacher at Shore Regional High School for 34 years. During his tenure at Shore Regional, he was instrumental in the building of the observatory, now named for him, as well as being named the Science Department and later the Math and Science Department Chairman prior to his retirement. When he wasn’t in the classroom, he could be found coaching baseball, as well as boys and girls soccer.
Outside of the classroom, Ed was very involved in his community and served on the Oceanport Borough Council for nine years. During his tenure on the Oceanport Council, he was very involved in the development of the Parks and Recreation program as well as instituting an Environmental Commission monitoring water quality on the Shrewsbury River for which he later was commended by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection.
Surviving is his wife of 55 years, Carol; his daughter & son-in-law Sharon & Don Wright and his grandchildren Allison and Kathryn Chan and Dylan and Ethan Wright.
Visitation Monday April 22nd 11:00 am until the time of the service at 12:00 pm at the Woolley-Boglioli Funeral Home, 10 Morrell Street, Long Branch. Private Entombment to follow in Woodbine Mausoleum, Oceanport. In lieu of flowers, donations in Ed’s memory can be made to the Wounded Warrior Project, PO Box 758517, Topeka, KS 66675.

Words cannot possibly express the positive force that “Coach” was in my life. He was a fabulous teacher, yes - but more importantly was a stellar mentor at a time when I most needed one. He was encouraging and helped me to find my inner strength to push forward on my own path. It was wonderful to be able to connect with you in recent years. I’m glad we could introduce you to our children including his goddaughter Catherine.
I wish you all the best in this difficult time.

Mr. Miller was one of the good guys. I didn't have him for science, but we knew each other through other teachers. After graduating in 1970, Shore hired me and 2 others to work for the school that summer.

He didn't have to do that. I'll always remember him for that and for his kindness to all the students.

Mr. Miller was my chemistry teacher in 81-82. He took a student who was scared to death of science and taught her to work hard, overcome her fear, and embrace learning.

Mrs. Miller and family: I am one of the many students Mr. Miller taught. Ironically, I found his Chemistry class so hard I was certain I would take no more science classes--only to then major in Biology and spend a career in nonprofit environmental protection and advocacy. I will always remember Mr. Miller as gentle, caring, and genuine. When my older brother was injured in a soccer game, he offered to take me to the hospital. When I saw him at a reunion one year, and told him of my environmental work, he commented that he was glad to see I had chosen the side of "the good guys." I am grateful for his not only being a truly fine teacher, but for his natural kindness. He was a model for what it is like to be a decent human being. May the many lives he touched and shaped serve to help soften the grief of your loss. Respectfully, Roy Hoagland

Very sorry to hear about Mr. Miller's passing. I took Chemistry with him in 1974-75. I remember that he made sure that we learned how to use a slide rule in the first half of the year before we were able to use the handheld held calculators that were all the rage at that time. Chemistry was not really my forte (I was a English/History student) but as a college prep kid, I had to enter the rather intimidating and yet very well organized world of Mr. Miller's classroom. He was very smart and very kind. I am afraid I gave the seasoned Marine a bit of a scare when I almost burned the lab down when I set some rubber tubing on fire with a bunsen burner. Calm and in control, he took care of the situation in a flash and all was saved. Condolences to his family. He was a Good Man.

Mr. Miller was my chemistry teacher in 81-82. He took a student who was scared to death of science and taught her to work hard, overcome her fear, and embrace learning. His teaching was integral to passing college chemistry. I have always had the deepest respect for his passion and drive that he was able to convey to each of his students. My condolences to his family.

Mrs. Miller and family: I am one of the many students Mr. Miller taught. Ironically, I found his Chemistry class so hard I was certain I would take no more science classes--only to then major in Biology and spend a career in nonprofit environmental protection and advocacy. I will always remember Mr. Miller as gentle, caring, and genuine. When my older brother was injured in a soccer game, he offered to take me to the hospital. When I saw him at a reunion one year, and told him of my environmental work, he commented that he was glad to see I had chosen the side of "the good guys." I am grateful for his not only being a truly fine teacher, but for his natural kindness. He was a model for what it is like to be a decent human being. May the many lives he touched and shaped serve to help soften the grief of your loss. Respectfully, Roy Hoagland

I remember right before Christmas break, when he made these flaming snowballs in Chemistry. After graduation, he encouraged me to consider a run for office. I didn't follow through until over 20 years later. Great memories of a great teacher.

Very sorry to hear about Mr. Miller's passing. I took Chemistry with him in 1974-75. I remember that he made sure that we learned how to use a slide rule in the first half of the year before we were able to use the handheld held calculators that were all the rage at that time. Chemistry was not really my forte (I was a English/History student) but as a college prep kid, I had to enter the rather intimidating and yet very well organized world of Mr. Miller's classroom. He was very smart and very kind. I am afraid I gave the seasoned Marine a bit of a scare when I almost burned the lab down when I set some rubber tubing on fire with a bunsen burner. Calm and in control, he took care of the situation in a flash and all was saved. Condolences to his family. He was a Good Man.

I am praying for Mr. Miller and his family. Mr. Miller was my favorite teacher, who wrote my college recommendation letters so many years ago. He was one of the many people in my life who helped me become the person I am today. Mr. Miller and his family will always occupy a special place in my heart and soul.
