Published in the Seattle Times
“I met Dr. Mills a number of times at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology and appreciated not only his brilliant mind but also his sense of humor. I always looked forward every month to read his superbly written and cogent editorials in Eye Net magazine for those 14 years he was the Chief Medical Editor.”
