William Alexander Mills ’52

Alex graduated from the University of Toronto Schools. At Princeton he joined Cottage, studied economics, won the Blackwell Trophy, and was captain of the hockey team. He roomed with Doug Hardy, Rob Warren, and Richard Billings.

After a time selling for Procter & Gamble in Nova Scotia, he turned to insurance and real estate in his own firm, eventually the Mills Team, specializing in real estate development with wide success.

Ever well met and a friend to many in the class, Alex and his wife, Jane, were regulars at our reunions.

He died Nov. 27, 2023. He is survived by Jane and their children Debbie, Tracy ’82, Sue, Jill ’85, Tim, and Katie. With them the class grieves in fond memories of our brother Alex.
