MILLS: GER­ARD (April 7th, 1941) died at the Guelph Gen­er­al Hos­pi­tal, Cana­da on Fri­day Jan­u­ary 20, 2023. He was the son of In­ez Hop­kins (dec) and George Mills (dec.). Ger­ard was the broth­er of Anne (George dec) Win­ter-Roach, Robert (Eliz­a­beth) Hop­kins, and Joan Hop­kins. Un­cle to Si­mone, An­drew and Chris­t­ian Win­ter-Roach, Anush­ka and Allyson Hop­kins, Paul and David Fer­di­nand and Gillian Fer­di­nand-Mac Pher­son. Friend of the Fer­di­nand and Her­rera fam­i­lies. The fam­i­ly wish­es to ex­press sin­cere thanks to Tam­my Hur­dle for the com­pas­sion she showed Ger­ard over sev­er­al years and for her im­mea­sur­able help to them. We thank all those who loved Ger­ard and reached out in sup­port and prayers to the fam­i­ly in his fi­nal days. To his com­rades of the West In­dia and Trinidad Reg­i­ments who ad­mired him and sup­port­ed him, thank you for be­ing there for him. To his close friends who re­mem­ber the mu­sic road he trav­elled, and shared his love of Jazz and Bossa-No­va, may you cel­e­brate those mo­ments in your mem­o­ries and know how much he ap­pre­ci­at­ed your friend­ships. The fam­i­ly would ap­pre­ci­ate do­na­tions to the Alzheimer’s So­ci­ety of Trinidad and To­ba­go in lieu of flow­ers. A memo­r­i­al will be held by zoom at a lat­er date.
