SCCA Worker Glenn Miller Killed in On-Track Incident


SCCA Staff Writers






Glenn Miller

TOPEKA, Kan. (May 16, 2005) - Glenn Miller, of Cleveland, Ohio, a longtime
Sports Car Club of America member and experienced corner worker, succumbed
to injuries after being struck by a car Sunday during an SCCA Driver's
School at Nelson Ledges, a road racing course in Nelson, Ohio.

A continuous member since 1991, Miller, 58, was working as a volunteer
member of the Lake Erie flagging and communications crew, an area-based
group that serves to communicate course conditions to drivers and race
stewards as well as assist in on-track incidents. An Acura driven by Kurt
Niemeyer, of Cincinnati, spun, slid in wet grass and struck Miller, who was
not behind positive protection at the time.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with Glenn's family and friends," SCCA
President and CEO Steve Johnson said. "It's always difficult to lose one of
our own, but particularly tragic when it is one of our 'angels in white'-our
SCCA corner workers."

Miller is survived by his wife, Carol, and three children.

Update - 

Services will be Thursday, May 19 at 11:00 a.m. at Brickman Funeral Home,
21900 Euclid Ave., Euclid, OH (216) 481-5277 .

The family is asking that donations be made to the family in Glenn's name at
1526 Larchmont, Cleveland, OH 44110.
