Miles is best known for his devotion to his family.  He enjoyed trips to the mountains, movies and music, and spending time with friends, especially if that meant eating Thai food or drinking strong coffee.  Miles loved to cook.  He always prepared enough food to feed an army.  Miles had a very kind heart and quick wit and will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.
