One of the “greats” of my time; of whom there are sadly few remaining. Rarely mildly annoyed, I never remember him “cross”. It was always possible to look forward to double physics with Boxer. I am pleased that I was able to tell him, many years after, that physics played a large part in much of my work. I was even more pleased to see the genuine delight that he showed on hearing this.

Not too many like “Boxer” Mills. I am grateful to have been there. Thank you…
