Growing up in Black Jack, N.C. I often heard of your honor and dedication to public service. In addition, I lived across the highway from your family's former home and was constantly reminded of the dangers associated with law enforcement. I now serve at the Greenville Police Department and consider it an honor carry on the Mills name with the agency. Thank you for your service, dedication to duty and integrity your memory has instilled upon.
