Longtime Marshall County Judge-Executive Mike Miller dies

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Longtime Marshall County Judge-Executive Mike Miller died at a western Kentucky hospital after collapsing in his office.

Assistant County Attorney Jason Darnall says Miller collapsed at work Monday morning and died a short time later due to respiratory complications.

An obituary posted on Collier Funeral Home’s website says Miller was 70. It says Miller died at the Marshall County Hospital emergency room.

The Kentucky County Judge/Executive Association says Miller, a Democrat, had served as Marshall County’s judge-executive since 1974.

He was re-elected to another term last month in the western Kentucky county.
