Niven was a brilliant man who was always fun to be around, he was a happy and funny person who could find humor in almost any circumstance. His intelligence and creativity kept him busy and he was continually creating innovative ideas.  His career specialized in bridge construction where he applied his carpentry skills as a general contractor with his brother, and best friend, Johnnie. When he wasn’t working or creating, he loved spending time on the water and he especially enjoyed the crystal coast. Niven will be remembered for his compassion for others and a willingness to support his family.

He is survived by his sisters, Debra Miller Gray and Frankie Miller Coleman; brother, Johnnie Wayne Miller; many loving nieces and nephews; and his dogs and companions, Buddy and Patches.
