Bob Mills Furniture statement

“It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we share the passing of our beloved husband, father, and founder of Bob Mills Furniture, Bob Mills,” the family said. They described his passing as an immeasurable loss and said he built more than a furniture company.

“Bob built more than a furniture company. He built a legacy rooted in hard work, determination, relationships, and a genuine belief in people,” the family said. The statement added that Bob Mills Furniture will continue to move forward under the values and commitment that guided the business during his leadership.

Griffin Media tribute

Griffin Media said, “Bob was a dear and wonderful friend to both the Griffin family and our company for many years. He was also a true Oklahoma icon - a business trailblazer, a friend to the community, and an inspirational leader for many.”

For employees and customers, the immediate practical point is that the business remains open under the framework the family described. The family’s message pairs that assurance with grief, making the company’s next steps about continuity rather than a change in ownership or direction.
