I learned an important lesson from George Mills.

George was a studio camera man when I worked at WJZ-TV from 1976-79.

I produced shows like Square Off, which was hosted by Richard Sher.

If you respected George and the other camera men, they would look for good shots. (They were all camera men forty years ago.)

If you did not respect them, they would do what they had to do but nothing more.

I haven’t forgotten that lesson.

I respect our professional staff in Annapolis. They can be of enormous benefit with advice and insight.
I also try to work hard for all of my constituents, whatever neighborhood they live in.

George is the father of Keith Mills, the sportscaster.

At the viewing today, he took me over to the casket and said, “He loved you.”
