He set up his own insurance business, Rulon Miller Inc. in 1962. His experience at Proctor Academy fostered a lasting interest in education.

He is a trustee of the Princeton Club of New York and the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. He has also served on many boards.
Recently his passion had been an involvement with the town of Northeast Harbor, Maine, where he had just begun serving as a selectman.
He is survived by his daughter, Tanya Rulon-Miller; his brothers, Patrick Rulon-Miller and Harry Rulon-Miller; and two grandchildren.
There will be a graveside service for the immediate family.
