Christopher Mills continued...

He often has said that his dream job would be to be a water-skiing instructor in the Maldives – slightly less lucrative than a dispute resolution lawyer, but a lot less stressful.

Chris and Greg shared and engaged together in many passions including their love of food and cooking, travel and exploration, scuba diving, performance cars and all manner of sports, both team and individual. They were more than father and son; they were inseparable buddies, confidants, partners in crime and keepers of mutual secrets, each encouraging the other to pursue their passions. Through Greg’s participation in them, Chris was able vicariously to enjoy certain sports which he no longer played.

Chris and Karine have set up The Gregory Mills Foundation to honour the memory of their beloved son and have roped in Nassif and Michael to assist them on the Board; and roped in Greg’s sister (Rebecca (“Bex”)), brother (Jonathan (“JT”)) and friends (including friends of Greg) to assist on various committees established to further the aims of the Foundation.

Karine Bailly Mills continued...

A professional background as eclectic as her life with Gregory, Karine went from the world of luxury fashion houses to creating coaching programmes and participating in experiential workshops in behavioral and emotional journeys.

Recently, her main passion lay in writing and creating an educative adventure with Gregory that would allow him to develop skills and qualities to be well equipped for the world we live in, travelling and experiencing cultures, places, philosophies and altruistic projects while continuing to explore their passions.

Now, life has taken a radical turn for the story of the family and, on that new road, her writing will continue alongside the work for the Foundation with their loved ones  to honour the lifetime of colourful life adventures, their journey and the legacy of Greg’s creativity and kind-heartedness through acts of good in many shapes and forms.

Nassif BouMalhab continued...

Nassif (Nas) BouMalhab is a lawyer specialised in international commercial arbitration and litigation based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where he met Greg for the first time.

Whilst Nas is serious enough to be recognised by several authoritative guides as a leading lawyer in his field of practice, his pastimes focus on less cerebral matters - for one improving his skills at PS4 in anticipation of the next time that Greg and Nas would face off.

In his spare time, Nas also enjoys fantasising about producing his own olive oil from a modest family owned grove located in Lebanon's West Bekaa Valley, and producing his own maple syrup out of a maple grove in Quebec's Hautes Laurentides. Nas is currently painting a series titled "Spider-Man Saves Syria" with a view to donating all proceeds of sale to aid Syrian relief.

Michael Hajdasinski continued...

Michael (Mike) Hajdasinski, was born in Poland and raised in the Netherlands. He worked as a Shipping and Trade lawyer for 15 years, through which he met, and came to be a close friend, of the family.

He gave up this career to follow his dreams and become the proud founder of an online auction platform, bringing innovation and transparency to the trade and insurance industry.

Being the son of Polish immigrants who had the courage to escape from the communist regime in the 70s leaving everything behind, Mike is passionate in the pursuit of his own passions and in encouraging those bold enough to try. This is where he found common ground with Greg, who was passionate about all the ideas he had and was compassionate towards those who were less fortunate than him.
