Arzo Alexander “Skillet” Miller, 90, of Greensburg, KY passed away Thursday, September 3, 2026. He was born March 27, 1936 in Greensburg to the late Sam Henry and Lettie Scott Miller.

Arzo was a devoted husband, father, brother, grandfather, church member, and friend. He was a hardworking man who took great pride in providing for and caring for his family. With only a sixth-grade education, he built a good life through hard work, determination, and perseverance. He worked for Taylor/Green Ready Mix for several years and later drove a feed truck for Central Farmers Supply for 30 years. After retirement, Arzo continued working part-time at Foster-Toler-Curry Funeral Home.

His family was his greatest joy, and he loved nothing more than celebrating the accomplishments of his children. He was a faithful member of Second Baptist Church, where he served as a Deacon, Treasurer, and former Choir President. His prayers were well known, and many could recite them right along with him.

Known throughout the community simply as “Skillet,” Arzo was affectionately considered the “unofficial mayor of Greensburg.” He never met a stranger and could strike up a conversation with just about anyone. He will also be remembered for his trademark toothpick, his Ford Ranger with the “DEACON” license plate, his love of Louisville basketball, and his Diet Mountain Dews. He enjoyed rabbit hunting with his friends and cherished the time they spent together outdoors. He was tenderhearted and could cry at the drop of a hat—especially when it came to his family.

Arzo was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Clara Miller; his son, Samuel Miller; his stepdaughter, Janet Edwards; his parents, Sam and Lettie Miller; a brother, Charlie Sam Miller; and three sisters: Lillie Mae Wooldridge, Alene Mitchell, and Wanda Barger.

SURVIVORS:

2 children: Christina Banks (Cary) and Rev. Josh Miller (Courtney)

2 great-granddaughters: Rhylynn Mitchell and Aveyanna Jones

A host of nieces, nephews, relatives, friends, church family & loved ones

Arzo’s life was one of faith, hard work, family, and service. He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

“Skillet” may be gone from our sight, but the love, laughter, prayers, and memories he gave us will remain forever.

Mina Lorene Hash Hedgespeth, 92, of Campbellsville, KY went home to be with her Lord and Savior on September 5, 2026. She was born on April 1, 1934, the daughter of the late McKinley and Mayme Newton Hash.

Mina made her profession of faith in Jesus Christ on October 18, 1948, at Buffalo Baptist Church and was baptized in Buffalo Creek. Her church membership was later transferred to Corinth Baptist Church in Hodgenville, Kentucky, where she remained a faithful member until her passing.

Mina was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Charles Thurman Hedgespeth. The two were united in marriage on June 1, 1958, and shared 55 years and 10 months of marriage before Charles passed away on Mina’s birthday, April 1, 2014.

Mina was a remarkable educator whose dedication to learning and to young people became a defining part of her life. She graduated as valedictorian of the 1954 Taylor County High School graduating class. She continued her education at Campbellsville College, earning a Teacher’s Certificate in 1956.

Upon completing her teaching certificate, Mina was hired by the LaRue County Board of Education, where she taught seventh- and eighth-grade students at Buffalo High School for four years. Always striving to learn more and become a better educator, she continued her studies at Campbellsville College and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Education in 1960.

For the 1960–61 school year, Mina returned to Taylor County and became one of the teachers at the newly opened Taylor County High School in Campbellsville, where she taught Business Education. Her commitment to education continued throughout her career as she earned a Master of Science degree, Rank I, and Rank IA in School Administration from Western Kentucky University.

In 1966, Mina was promoted from the classroom to the Taylor County Board of Education, where she served as Director of Pupil Personnel. She remained in that position until her retirement in 1994, when she stepped away from her career in education to care for her mother. In all, Mina devoted 38 years of her life to education and to serving the children and families of her community.

Retirement did not slow Mina down. In 2009, she began working as a People Greeter at Walmart in Campbellsville, where her warm personality and love for people made her a natural fit. She continued there until her retirement in 2015.

Mina was a joy to be around. She was outgoing, intelligent, studious, honest, generous, and giving—and above all, she was loving. She lived life fully and gave all she had to the people around her. She believed in serving others, encouraging others, and making a difference wherever she could.

Her contributions as an educator were recognized throughout her career. Mina received numerous awards and honors for her work in education and was recognized by President Ronald Reagan, Martha Layne Collins, the first woman Governor of Kentucky, the Kentucky Senate and House of Representatives, and United States Senator Mitch McConnell for her outstanding performance, leadership, and commitment to supporting education and the youth of Kentucky.

In 1973, Mina was nominated and selected for the first annual printing of Who’s Who: Outstanding Educators in America. That inaugural publication recognized Mina and other educators whose dedication and contributions at the local, county, state, and regional levels helped strengthen American education.

Mina was also a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), an organization reflecting her appreciation for family, heritage, and service.

Although Mina never had children of her own, she was a mother to many. She opened her heart and her home to those who needed her and gave love, guidance, encouragement, and care freely. She was a leader, teacher, wife, mother figure, aunt, grandmother figure, and friend. She cared deeply for others and made people feel loved.

Perhaps the greatest measure of Mina’s life was not the titles she held or the honors she received, but the lives she touched. She gave of herself generously, loved without reservation, and believed there was always room in her heart for another person. Mina loved her family, her community, her students, and, in her own special way, the whole world.

Her life was one of faith, service, education, family, and love. Her memory will live on in the many people she taught, encouraged, cared for, and loved.

John Thomas Rainwater, Jr., 57, of San Jose, California passed away at home on Tuesday, August 18, 2026. He was born in Campbellsville, KY on July 26, 1969, a son of John Thomas Rainwater, Sr. and the late Sherri Rainwater.

His parents were absolutely thrilled by his arrival, and later welcomed his sisters, Julie and Jill. He loved his family deeply and spent much of his youth playing with his sisters and cousins. Oh, the stories he told!

John was a 1987 graduate of Taylor County High School, finishing in the top of his class. He was a member of the National Beta Club and the Academic Team. He was quite athletic, with baseball holding a special place in his heart, as he was a former All-Star player known for his incredible catching skills. A bit of an eccentric in high school, John wore a jacket and tie to class every day and carried a briefcase. Later in life he referred to his “Alex P. Keaton” days with great fondness. He was a person of great intellect, fun and imagination, referred to by his friends as an “anchor and sparring partner.” After graduation he attended the United States Naval Academy before finding his calling in technology. He moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in the early 1990’s, working for various technology companies. In 2001 he met his future wife, Rhonda, on a blind date at an Italian restaurant. The rest is history.

With the encouragement of his wife, John completed his Bachelor’s degree in physics and math in 2006, graduating from Western Kentucky University. It was a difficult task considering the fact that he was living in San Jose at the time. Fortunately, with the help of Dr. Doug Harper, his mentor and friend, he was successful. He went on to enjoy a very successful career in lasers and optics. Due to health issues, he retired in 2025.

John was preceded in death by his sister, Jill Rainwater; his mother, Sherri Rainwater; his grandparents: Frances Campbell, John D. Rainwater, Ernest Price, and Doris Beams; and his nephew, John Michael Milby.
