It is sometimes affectionately said of Fred Miller that he didn’t know when to quit. He retired three times during a career that spanned forty years and saw him involved in many facets of mathematics education.
Fred served as a teacher and principal at Englehart H.S. in Northern Ontario and at Thistletown High School in Etobicoke. He later became a lecturer and assistant to the Dean of Mathematics at the University of Waterloo. While at Waterloo, he edited the Ontario Secondary School Mathematics Bulletin, and wrote a popular problems page for it called “Oldies but Goldies”. Fred’s favourite problems concerned Euclidean geometry and trigonometry.
Fred was a sports enthusiast, active for many years in curling and golf.
