John Miles Obituary
He was born in Scranton on July 8, 1991, and was the son of the late Christopher Miles and Agnes and Paul Vermac, of Moosic.
He was a graduate of Riverside Jr. Sr. High School; He was employed by Besko Media and loved his job. Johnny was a kind, thoughtful man; everyone he loved, he did so madly. His heart was so big, it couldn't be contained in his chest.
He loved his family, his beautiful fianceé, Cassie, and his daughter, Roslyn, with a love so great he could burst. He was the first one in the crick every spring. He loved all music, especially Jethro Tull. He was so funny, happy and moody.
John is also survived by his sister, Margaret, Avoca; brother, Peter, Moosic; sister, Aggie, Moosic; nieces, who he loved like his own, Maggie and Rachel, Avoca; grandparents, John and Patricia Miles and Agnes Lavelle; and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.
He will join much of his family in heaven and will be greeted by his father, Chris.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10 a.m. on Monday at Queen of the Apostles Parish Church, 715 Hawthorne St., Avoca, with the Rev. Phillip Sladicka officiating.
Friends may call from 4 to 7 p.m. on Sunday at Kiesinger Funeral Services Inc., 255 McAlpine St., Duryea.
Family and friends are asked to go directly to the church for the Mass as there will be no procession from the funeral home. Interment will be held at the St. Mary's Cemetery, Avoca.
