Following service in the army during World War II, Milroy began a song-and-dance act which led him to meet his wife, Mary Lee, who was a singer. The couple married in Aberdeen in 1952. A natural comedian, Milroy appeared in Glasgow, which he continued to make his base, had his own show at the Tivoli Theatre, Aberdeen in the 1950s and was a regular favourite at the Gaiety Theatre, Ayr. Milroy was awarded an MBE in 2000 for services to entertainment. Milroy died in Glasgow's Western Infirmary. He died on 1 February 2001, aged 85. Milroy was survived by his wife Mary, son Jim, and step-daughter Diane.
