Bobby Miller
Bobby G. Miller Jr. was elected president of Greater Georgia Printers at a recent stockholder’s meeting.
Miller has been with the company since 1975, serving as general manager for approximately 40 years. Ralph B. Maxwell, the company’s former president, died on May 7, after serving in that capacity for 25 years.
“I was, and am, certainly saddened by the death of Ralph,” Miller said. “He was a friend and is greatly missed.”
GGP, which is in Crawford, was formed in 1969 and serves customers throughout the Southeast.
