Michael was one of my brothers. He was a very talented and generous guy. I can't tell you how much we miss him.

I have laid down my life in service to all of you.
I have been a part of the fabric that has held the line between your safety and your victimization. I have given my life so that others may live in peace. I have lived my life as a dedicated member of the greatest profession. There is no greater honor.

As I now become a part of the rich history of law enforcement, please remember me always for I have left behind those who loved and depended upon me.
My partners and my agency, please remember my family, their loss, and don’t let time soften your compassion for them.

You guard the gate now and I will continue my watch from above.

MAY YOU REST IN PEACE AND MAY YOUR FAMILY FIND COMFORT IN THE GOOD YOU HAVE DONE HERE ON EARTH.

Michael, Bless you and your family and the Reno Police Department. To all officers in the Reno Police Dept.,
thank you for everything you do for fallen officers. We know if there is a fallen officer in Northern California that the Reno Police Dept. will be there to pay respect to their brother or sister, to their family, and their agency.

Michael's memory is still honored and revered in this 40th anniverary year of his tragic death.

Officer Mills, today marks the 39th anniversary of your tragic death at the hands of a drunk driver. As a former Auxiliary myself, I understand the effort that goes into the position and it’s not for pay, but the for the joy of helping others while gaining valuable police experience. You died helping someone and for that sacrifice and the effort you put forth on behalf of the people of Reno, you are a hero.

God Bless and may you continue to Rest in Peace, Brother.

Mike use to work with me every Saturday Night. The night that he was killed I had taken off and he worked with Charlie Nearpass who was seriously injured. Mikes desire was to be a Dog Handler. I'm sorry you never got to do that. Rest in Peace my friend.
