Hi there! I’m Eddy Miller, the Vice President here at MVOPT. It’s great to meet you!

Thanks for stopping by our site—we’d love to have you join our family. I’ve lived in the Dayton area almost my entire life (originally from Germantown) and served in the US Army during Desert Storm.

If you have any questions at all or just want to chat about what we do, feel free to reach out to me at MVOPTInfo@gmail.com or give me a call at 937-718-6554. I’ll get back to you as soon as I can!

We all have a story…. This is part of mine.
As 2021 drew to a close, I was faced with the sudden passing of my partner of 15 years. Roger was the very best thing that ever happened to me…. I will be eternally blessed to have loved him and enjoyed life together. Over the following 2+ years, I mourned the loss of my partner and my life slowly changed. And those men the Vice-President spoke about in last month’s letter….that WAS me! I filled my life with golf and always having a job on the go around the house. I did what needed doing and then just hung out at home, alone. I don’t know how or when it happened, but I began craving something; not quite knowing what it was. And I hadn’t the slightest idea how to begin the rest of my life. You see, Roger was truly my ‘one and only love’.
Fast forward to late 2024, when I stumbled upon MVOPT. It took many months and some ‘coaching’ from my family but eventually, I decided that coffee at Panera would be the least threatening environment and allow me easy ‘escape’, if needed. I quickly discovered there would be no need for that! Each gentleman I talked to made me feel welcome; so much so that I decided to continue coming for coffee on Tuesday for a little while and see how things went. For the longest time, it was just Tuesday coffee, but slowly, as I got to know the gentlemen of MVOPT, I started going to Thursday Dinner w/ Joe, etc. Now, I look forward to seeing my new friends a few times a week.
Now, 4 months after becoming a member of this godsend of an organization, my life has shifted. I’m so grateful for the friends I have made…. Each of you continues to bring a deep sense of joy and warmth to my heart and spirit! I love MVOPT and the men that comprise its membership. I’m honored to be working with all of you and watching MVOPT grow. And, throughout this new journey of mine, it’s been the men of MVOPT that keep me coming back. Gentlemen, please do not underestimate the impact you can have when just ONE of you befriends an old man like me. I am and will remain forever grateful.
