“He was extremely cool. He had a great sense of humor! Every day with him was filled with activities. When we were at Kennebunkport, we’d fish for stripers early, golf in the afternoon, and return to barbecuing horseshoes, and a beer or two.”
Further praising the former president, Mill added, “He was a wonderful friend that cared deeply for not only me but my family. He and Chrissie were very close. He inducted her into the tennis hall of fame and wrote the foreword to my book.”
