Michael "Mike" Mills, a cherished member of the Bowling Green community, passed away peacefully on November 19, 2025, in Clarksville, TN. Born on July 8, 1949, in Bowling Green, Mike lived a life marked by his unwavering love for family and a commitment to his values as a proud Marine Combat Veteran of the 2nd Battalion, 1st Marine Division.

Mike's legacy is deeply rooted in his role as a loving father and grandfather. He is survived by his son, Tim Mills, and his daughter, Cheryl Harris. He was preceded in death by his son, Michael B. Mills and his wife Eula F. Mills. In addition to his children, Mike also leaves behind his adored grandchildren, Aaron Mills, April (Tyler) Sigman, and Alicia Harris, alongside his precious great-grandchildren, Evelyn and Jackson Sigman.
