"Dick" Miller, 82, of Eldridge, Iowa, passed away peacefully with his family by his side, on Thursday, January 12, 2012, at Genesis Medical Center, East Campus, Davenport. He was born on July 22, 1929, to Raymond R. and Elsie Mae (Osborne) Miller in LaPorte City, Iowa. Dick was a farmer for many years, and had retired in 1998, from Eldridge Lumber Company, where he had been the sales manager. He was a 1948 graduate of Coggon High School and a member of Park View Lutheran Church in Eldridge. He proudly served his country with the U.S. Navy, and was a Korean War veteran, having served two tours of duty there. After returning from Korea, he was employed with Allen Motor Company in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, for 20 years before owning and operating a Standard Oil service station in Cedar Rapids. In 1963 he moved his family to a farm in Newhall, Iowa, and, along with farming, worked for Iowa Glass Depot in Cedar Rapids. In 1972 he transferred to Davenport to manage an Iowa Glass Depot branch there, and eventually started Miller Glass Company. He was an avid golfer and the St. Louis Cardinals' #1 fan. He loved being with his family – especially his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
