his life.

The span of Myles' earthly life was short, but during this time he touched the lives of many people. He was a tiny little boy with the strength and courage of an army who fought all the way up to the end. His perseverance and will to live are an inspiration to all. Myles was deemed the "fighter" by the staff at Mayo Clinic NICU and surprised them with his amazing ability to overcome so many odds. Myles was a special gift to his parents and taught them so much about life in his short 26 days on earth than they every imagined he could. Myles' spirit will live on in the hearts and memories of all who loved him.
