Leora Frank Mills was the eldest son of John J. and Estella Conrad Mills. Times were not always easy but he was a hard worker and compassionate Christian man. Leora welcomed his wife's brother to live with them for a number of years.When son Russell was in the Boy Scouts, Leora attended several camping events. Although he was never one, he certainly did live the Boy Scout creed of love of country. During World War 2 Leora was a civil defense person and was expected to help those in the neighborhood in the event of an attack. He was very involved and devoted to his church.He and Bertha enjoyed many vacations with her sister and husband. Leora retired after 35 years of service to Indianapolis Power & Light Co. However, he could not lead a sedentary life-style and continued to work part-time to satisfy his idleness. He was truly a loyal and honest person and was always above reproach. |
