Millard was born October 16, 1933, to William and Gertrude Pierce DePriest in Oregon County, Missouri. He leaves a legacy of love for God, family and his neighbor. He loved the privilege to gather with his family to worship and sing to the Lord Jesus Christ. His greatest joy was seeing his grandson grow into a wonderful man and add two outstanding great-grandsons to carry on that legacy. He was an avid sportsman in the field of upland birds and turkey hunting, always enjoying the camaraderie with his family and friends.

He is also survived by a sister, Vera. Millard was preceded in death by his wife, Dot, of sixty years and son John along with his parents, six brothers and two sisters.
