Charles “Dickie” McMillin, age 90, of Martin, Tennessee, passed away peacefully at his home on August 7, 2025, surrounded by his family.
He was born on March 15, 1935, to the late Roy L. McMillin and Eunie Spicer McMillin. He lived most of his life on his home place, in the Campground Community, outside of Martin. He worked for twenty years at Interstate Life and Accident Insurance Company. He later worked at Schwan’s Food Service until he retired after twenty-two years.
