Albert Mills, Jr. Obituary
Albert Edonniers Mills, Jr. (D.J.) was born on March 26, 1979 in Suffolk, VA. He attended Suffolk Public Schools and graduated from Lakeland High School.
He was well known for his Mathematical gift. For example, if you told him what year you were born, immediately he would tell you how old you were. He was an encyclopedia for dates, numbers, baby weights and lengths. He was very loving, caring, and always made you feel special. He had an infectious smile and would tell you how much he loved you. He would lighten up the room and brought joy with great energy! He loved people genuinely and was so excited to see you!
Even though family and friends were important to him; his relationship with the Lord was most important. He loved Jesus and would often share Christ with others. When asking him how he was doing, his answer was, Blessed and Highly Favored!
He was preceded in death by his grandparents: Rudolph and Annie Wiggins and Albert and Lee Ellen Mills; great-grandmother Otelia Eaton; uncles Wardell Mills, Sidney C. Wiggins; aunt Sandra Williams; and cousin, Tabitha Mills.
He leaves to cherish his memory, his mom, Alta Brenda Mills; his dad, Albert E. Mills, Sr. (Jeanette); and his brother, Frederick Boone; his aunts, Cora L. House, Vanessa Gilliam-Brown (Charles), Rev. Dr. Trina C. Jones (Ronald), Teresa Goodman (George), Gloria Jennings, Sheryl Watford, Janice Hunter, Angela Watson (Tommy), and Tracey Goodman (William, Sr.); his uncles, Dennis Mills, Barry Mills (Karen), Dwight Mills (Priscilla); a great aunt, Evelyn Collins (William) and a host of first cousins, Connell Wiggins (Tiffany), Tonia Mason (Tony), LaTasha Ellison (Michael), Clinton Calhoun III (Trish), Nigel Calhoun (Courtney), Langston Calhoun (Shannon), Gabrielle Jones (honorary sister), and the one he took care of Travis Jones (Karoline), Leshia Bailey, Hope Riddick (Willie), Patrena Jackson (Morris), George Goodman, Jr. (Toni), Valencia Claude, Thomas Hunter, Jr., Sherell Lee (Chris), Rashid Mills, Quinn Mills, Brooke Mills, Chanika Nelson, Reginald Bagley, Jr., Laquita Goodman, William Goodman, Jr. (Racquel), Ashanda Mills, Raschad Russell, Tenesha Applewhite, Walter Farmer, Brandon Farmer, Kimberly Farmer, Cecisley Jefferson, Kevin Mills, and Wardell Mills, Jr., and a host of other cousins, family, and friends.
