Carlisle Productions Co-founder Chip Miller Dies at 61

Beloved husband, father, grandfather, coworker and friend will be 
sorely missed by all.

Chip Miller passed away at approximately 12:30am CST on March 25 at 
the Mayo Clinic from complications related to Amyloidosis. He was 
surrounded by loved ones in his final moments. 

Miller was diagnosed with primary Amyloidosis in December 2003. The 
rare plasma cell disorder, which attacks the body's main organs, 
affects about 2,000 people each year. Currently, there is no cure.

After the diagnosis, Chip and his wife, Judy, established a Web site 
at CaringBridge to keep family and friends updated during diagnosis 
and treatment. Visitors to the site were able to read Chip's patient 
journal and leave words of support in the guest book. Chip and Judy 
used this site to communicate with the many, many well-wishers who 
had expressed their concern.

Chip and Bill Miller started the first automotive event at Carlisle 
in 1974. Their business has grown to 12 automotive events this year, 
including Chip's favorite, Corvettes at Carlisle. Each year, more 
than half a million people come to events at the Carlisle Fairgrounds.


His interest in automobiles began when, as a child, he saw a magazine 
in a gutter with a custom car on the cover. He became fascinated with 
Chevrolet Corvettes after seeing an ad for a new 1957 Corvette. Chip 
has owned more than 80 Corvettes in his life, as well as many other 
vehicles. He was very interested in racing, especially vintage 
Corvettes. 

Miller was a member of the Antique Automobile Club of America, Shelby 
Owners Club and at least a dozen Corvette clubs.

Chip remained positive until the end and continued to think of others 
rather than himself. "It shows how selfless Chip is and the wonderful 
person he is," said Diane Vaughn, co-worker and friend of Chip's for 
more than 20 years. "He wants to widen the knowledge of this disease 
so that through him, others will live."
