About Barry Miller
March 23, 1943 - June 3, 2020 Resident of
Crockett, California
Dr. Barry Miller died peacefully at home with his wife
Linda Miller by his side. He is survived by his beloved
family: his wife Linda, his daughter Jill Miller, his sister
Susan Lynette, and his grandchildren, Ashanti Walker,
Tre’ Ollison, Bryce Ollison, and Amaya Ollison. He was
predeceased by his son, Steve Jason Miller.
Barry was born in Linden, NJ, the son of Bess Ginzberg
Miller and Lester Miller. He enjoyed school and his love
of ideas, reading and learning never waned. He
graduated from Tulane University, University of
Kentucky Medical School and completed his medical
studies in Adult and Child Psychiatry at Yale University.
Upon graduating he started a private practice in San
Diego, CA, and served as the psychiatrist for Juvenile
Hall. For over 20 years Barry taught the Behavioral
Science component of the Family Practice Residency
Program at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center in
Martinez, CA.
Barry will be remembered affectionately for his
compassion and generosity, his childlike appreciation
of whimsy, provocative comments and questions, his
dry sense of humor and his joy in lively conversation.
He believed in eating dessert before dinner, just in
case he got too full
