Obituary:

David Green Mills, Sr., of Windermere, fell asleep and entered into eternal rest on Wednesday, August 17, 2022. David was born on July 20, 1931 in Washington, LA to the late Annie and Robert Mills. After completing his formal education, he enlisted in the US Air Force. He earned several medals and retired in 1971 after 20 years of active and dedicated service.

David served his community as the Supervisor of Parks and Recreation for the City of Orlando and as a maintenance worker for Valencia Community College- West Campus, retiring from both of those positions. David was a caring, trustworthy, kind hearted, respectable Christian man. He raised all of his kids with values and morals. He always taught his children how to be strong and resilient. His culinary skills and playing his lotto scratch-offs will forever be in the memory of his family. He was a provider, hard worker and enjoyed the simple things in life. David will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

David is survived by his 8 children, Hattie D. Barber, Priscilla (Anthony) Whitney, Marvin Odum, Daniel (Alison) Mills, David G. Mills, Jr., Brenda Barnes, Linda (David) Sanders, Mary Glover; 1 sister, Ann Sullivan; 18 grandchildren; and a host of other relatives and numerous friends.
