>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 
><http://www.caringbridge.org/pa/chipmiller/>CaringBridge to keep family 
>and friends updated during diagnosis and treatment. Visitors to the site 
>were able to read <http://www.caringbridge.org/pa/chipmiller/>Chip's 
>patient journal and leave words of support in the 
><http://www.caringbridge.org/pa/chipmiller/guestbook.html>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."
