Mecho will be fondly remembered by his nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, great-nieces and nephews, and many friends. Dearly loved and only son of the late George and Ethel. Miles loved the long road and his 25 years of truck driving. He enjoyed spending time with his family and many friends, had a passion for fast cars, cooking, BBQing, and hosting unforgettable parties. His famous brisket recipe will be missed by all.
