David MILES Obituary

Spokane - David, age 33, died unexpectedly due to a cardiac event. He left MN in 2007 to play football at EWU and after graduation remained in Spokane. He had an infectious smile, was considerate, good-natured, loved the mountains, and was a member of the EWU national champion football team in 2010.

He was loved by parents Bob and Kim Miles, siblings Ryan (Shelby), Joel (Sara), Adam (deceased), Laura (Erik) Nelson, Evan, Anna (Eric) Jorgenson, grandmothers (Joan Miles & Roma Peterson-both deceased), girlfriend Marisa Flores, and dogs Frankie & Pippa. David was the fun uncle to 4 nieces and 6 nephews. We are grateful for his life and know he is with his Lord.

We will celebrate his life in Spokane, WA, Sat 7/16 6:30-9:30pm at Madison Home Market 2976 E North Foothills Dr. In honor of David's love for EWU football and all things sports, please wear your favorite EWU gear or team attire.

Additional celebration in MN, Sat 8/20 1-4pm at North Heights Lutheran Church, 1700 Hwy 96 W, Arden Hills. MN service begins at 1pm with desserts/sharing to follow.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
