ELLICOTT CITY, MD – Howard County Executive Calvin Ball released the following statement regarding the passing of Maryland Senate President Emeritus Thomas V. Mike Miller, Jr.:

“For a half century, Senate President Mike Miller made Maryland one of the strongest states in our nation. His legacy will live on for generations. Throughout his career, he advocated for the protection of our beloved Chesapeake Bay, the best quality of education for our students, and above all else - was a devoted public servant. As Presiding Officer of the Senate for more than 30 years, he was a steadfast leader, a mentor and a friend to his colleagues and staff.

One of Senate President Miller's greatest gifts was his love and respect of our state’s history. Mike Miller respected every aspect of his role and every session of the General Assembly. Every decision he made will be etched into the fabric of Maryland history.  

On behalf of the residents of Howard County, our condolences are with his wife, Patti, his son Tommy, and daughters, Amanda, Michelle, Melissa, and Melanie, the entire Miller family and the millions of constituents he served for decades.”
