💜 In Loving Memory of Troy 💜

Our MILS family is heartbroken to share the passing of one of our amazing staff, Troy. He brought so much joy, humor, and light into every morning he walked through our doors. His presence made our days brighter, and his kindness touched so many lives.

Our thoughts and deepest love are with his wife, Amanda — a dedicated long-term member of our team — and with their entire family during this incredibly difficult time. We hope they feel the strength and support of our whole MILS community wrapped around them.

Troy will be deeply missed, but the laughter and warmth he shared will never be forgotten. 💜

Today we recognize and celebrate the retirement of a MILS legend, Fred 😄💜 We thank you for your 12 years of dedication to bettering those in our community! Your silly pranks and jokes, endless rounds of card games, and love for Vikings (hate for the Packers?) will be missed at the Garage. You've made a difference and left an impact - wishing you all the best in your next chapter!
In true Fred fashion, we celebrated with a Homecoming Tailgate Party 🏈

We are deeply saddened to share the news of the loss of our dear friend Michelle. For over 10 years, Michelle was an important part of MILS —not only cleaning our spaces, but also touching our lives with her kindness, dedication, and bright spirit.

Our hearts are with her loved ones during this difficult time. Michelle will be deeply missed by all of us at MILS.
