Millard A. Lord

Mr. Lord was always one of my favorite people. He would always stop to talk to you and always treated you with respect. I was a friend of his daughter Sue so he always had to put up with a bunch of giggling girls in his house especially when his wife Margaret was our Camp Fire leader. They both will always be part of my fondest childhood memories. Thanks to his family for sharing him with all of us.

When I look back and think of Arlington having been a good place
to be "The Home Town" to grow up in and gain a perspective to manage life, the knowledge to make decisions, the skills to cope
with the worst and the desire to succeed at my best I think of the
good and gifted people that guided me in my youth.
Mr. Lord was a friend, a mentor and honorable associate in my life. Lyman E. Lewis, Analyst Arlington, WA

The picture of Millard reminds us of the friendly and caring personality. We became friends of Margaret and Millard through our dear friend, Lynda Watson,and what a great time we always had upon our visits. Millard always remembered our family and would ask about everyone. Just a few months ago, we had a chance to talk about some of the great times we had together and it was amazing how much he remembered. We will miss him.

My late husband and I were friends of Millard and Margaret when we all lived in Pullman, Washington in the late 1940s. Millard was a very admirable person and a good husband. I hope to reconnect with Margaret and I extend my love and sympathy to her and her family.

Millard Lord was a role model and mentor to young teachers as well as to students. He was truly an inspiration who reminded people why they became educators.

So much gratitude for Mr. Lord's guidance, friendship, and support during my four years at Arlington High School (Class of 1961/ASB Pres.). He was instrumental in getting me a scholarship to WSU. He was always a gentleman and a role model.

Mr. Lord was our Senior Class Adviser for the class of '61, and I have fond memories of him at our assemblies and class meetings. He was a Class Act, and loved by all. Here's a fond farewell, Mr. Lord, and I wish your family hope and peace.

AHS Class of 1977 has many fond memories of Mr. Lord. We always felt honored that he retired the year that we graduated. He was a fair, honest and kind man. He will be remembered fondly by many.
