Mr Mcmillan was one of my favorite teachers at Lake Worth High School. My 9th grade Biology teacher. He had a passion for teaching, helping, wanting us to grow & love the world of science. He was very knowledgable & extremely friendly. Not one mean bone. I never saw him get mad. This was back in 2008 when I was a freshman. I remember him talking fondly of his family & niece. He said they were in Louisiana. Rest in Piece Mr Mcmilan. I searched him up today, to see if I could contact him & see how he is. But I found out he's went on to the next life. Great guy
