Robert Austin Miller

Robert was born in Park County on March 4, 1931, the son of Willard A. and Dorotha N. (Neff) Miller, and was a 1949 graduate of Greencastle High School.

Mr. Miller proudly served as a Corporal in the United States Army during the Korean War. He was a Tool and Die Maker for 41 years with Allison Division of General Motors, retiring from Plant 8 in 1991. After retirement Robert worked for 20 years with Marion County Fish and Game as a groundskeeper. He was an avid hunter and enjoyed traveling, and playing cards, but his favorite thing to do was eating. You dare not touch his plate if he had a fork in his hand. He loved to work with his hands. He was a wood worker and leather crafter, and enjoyed building and deconstructing things. But, most of all he loved his family.

Survivors include his wife of 15 years, Marilyn Miller; five children, David Miller, (Sue), Diana Burton, Donna Medearis, (Mark), Darrell Miller, and Edward Miller; 12 grandchildren; sixteen great-grandchildren; a brother, Ronald Miller, (Marge), a sister-in-law, Louise Miller; and several nieces, nephews, cousins and wonderful friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents; a sister, Barbara Geraldine Moore; a brother, Larry Miller; and a wife, Martha Miller.
