Kenneth Arthur Mills ’62

KENNETH MILLS DIED June 2, 1990, in Morristown, N.J., after an extensive battle with multiple sclerosis, first diagnosed in 1968, and, near the end, cancer. Ken came to Princeton from Lawrenceville. A member of Cannon Club, he majored in psychology and biology. After obtaining a master's degree, he spent a year traveling around the world, "working, playing, tennising, and freeloading." Eventually he settled down with "a wonderful English wife, a boy and a girl."

Ken worked with his father in a successful sporting goods business in Morristown, N.J., and devoted a lot of time to sports, especially hockey. One of his great passions to the end was golf. He was director of service for the National M.S. Society, over the years counseling hundreds of other M.S. victim, and was international coordinator for the Natl. Disabled Golfers Assn. He worked extensively with fundraising for Lawrenceville and supported Princeton in every way he could. We will especially remember Ken from Reunions and for the tremendous optimism he displayed despite his affliction.

Ken is survived by two children, Robinson Andrew (21) and Nicola Antoinette (19), and by his former wife, Antonia. To all his family, the Class, which has lost a courageous member, extends its most heartfelt condolences.
