A Buckeye Valley Fire District firefighter died from COVID-19 after a month-long battle with the illness he contracted from a work-related exposure.
Engineer Brian Miiller was hired in 2007 and served many years with the Buckeye Valley Fire District.
“He encouraged fitness and teamwork through impromptu games of frisbee, football, or dodgeball at the fire station. After a day of dominating at sports, he would continue his winning streak at the dinner table, crushing any eating competitions. He will be greatly missed for the joy and positivity he always had,” the Buckeye Valley Fire District shared in a Facebook post.
Miiller is survived by his wife, Debra, and his two children, Lauren and Jared.
