Charles Henry Miller, IV, 41, of Sarasota, FL passed away unexpectedly on Saturday October 10, 2026, due to a tragic motorcycle accident.

Charles (known as Chaz) was born on November 17, 1984, in Exeter, NH, to Charles Henry Miller III and Judith Miller (Vogt). He grew up in Barrington, NH where he learned his love for adventure and nature by hiking, camping, fishing, and driving dirt bikes.

Chaz was a dedicated, hard worker who took pride in all his work. He was an avid diver, welder, and spear fishermen. He used his love for the sea and diving to start his own Boat Hull business in Sarasota, FL.

He is survived by his adored fiancée Melissa Lavin, his 14-year-old daughter Judy Miller, his 10-year-old daughter Maisie, his beloved Aunt Deb (Diane Miller), father Charles Henry Miller III, mother Judith Miller, and sister Danielle. He is also survived by his aunts Sandy Miller, Valerie Kincaid, and Susan Miller, and his cousins Kathy Fratus, Michael Fratus, Charles (Chip) Haire, and Traci Blaisdell.

Chaz was loved by so many for his infectious, robust laugh, enormous and tender heart, sincere bear hugs, and fun random facts. He lit up a room wherever he went and always had something to talk about with anyone. He was a devoted father and friend with constant dedication to making his children and those he loved feel welcome and cared for. His generosity to help others in need was truly inspiring and impactful. He will always be remembered as the true embodiment of fierce love, protection, loyalty, and living life freely and wildly.

Public services will be held in New Hampshire, in the spring.
