Members of the Howard County Police Department pay tribute today to Howard County Sheriff's Office's Deputy Sheriff Frank J. Miller, who died of a heart attack after struggling with a prisoner on June 7, 1946.
He had worked as a deputy sheriff for 29 years, often patrolling Ellicott City and Elkridge prior to the establishment of the county police. We ask that you keep his family and friends in your prayers. He will never be forgotten.
