Letter: Wants list of those who lost lives in Hotel Fire Learned after marriage that both she, future husband were onlookers at disaster About: Photo of the Hotel Miller Fire Ed, Would anyone happen to know the names of the five people who died in this fire? I was only nine at the time. The picture has conjured up a lot of old memories for both my husband and I. It turns out that we were both there the night it burned and we were standing in almost the same location. Too bad we didn't know each other back then; of course I doubt he would have wanted anything to do with me since I was nine and he was seventeen.
