born to this union. He received his early religious and educational training in
Oklahoma. He confessed a hope in Christ at an early age. He was known to many as 
Pops and to some as Buck.

     Our brother knew no strangers, there were many young men and women he 
adopted to his family circle not only did he talk, he loved to help and advise 
in his everyday life. Millard was a friend to many and lived in a house by the 
side of the road.

construction worker in the Shipyards. In 1979, Millard moved to Fresno, 
California. He became a member of Masonic Lodge, 3rd Generation #5 in Fresno and
