Glynn “Popeye” Miller was a lifelong farmer whose legacy is deeply rooted in his community. Best known as a founding member of the Fenders Tractor Show, Popeye helped turn a simple idea in 1993—born from a shared passion for antique tractors—into a beloved annual tradition. As the event grew, Popeye and his family generously offered a portion of their farm to host the show, where it continued to flourish. He passed away at 90 in July of 2025.
