hey hun.. I couldnt believe the news when I read it on Frog’s myspace status.. I spent the month in Michigan with family and when I called to Alabama to see if it was true, the news knocked the breath outta me… I couldnt believe it… I know we didnt talk much but we’ve known each other for years and you had such a light spirit….. everyone that had the pleasure of being friends with you will be blessed with those memories forever… You will be greatly missed and always in our hearts.. C/O:2002
I have known Miles for about 3 years now.. he was always the life of the party and cared about all of his friends. He always made jokes and tried to make people laugh.. I’ll never forget one night we were at a bon-fire on his family farm and my husband got his dodge stuck in the mud trying to get out there and Miles pulled him out with his chevy… then Miles laughed and said, “dang John, you shoulda got a chevy!” lol.. He always loved a chevy. Anyways, another time we were at my father-in-law’s house and Miles was eating Hardee’s and I said I was hungry, so he gave me his fries.. lol I know that sounds silly, but it means alot to me looking back… I know he would have given the shirt off his back for any of his friends if it came down to it…just out of the kindness of his heart.
Miles, John & I miss you soo much.. we’ll never forget you & all the great times we had together.. We’ve even decided that when we have kids, we’re going to name our son after you. I know you’d be tickled.. lol You were one of our closest friends and you meant a lot to us. We know you’re resting high on that mountain, and when you’re not resting, you’re mud riding in your chevrolet, lol
We love & miss you Miles Brewster Cunningham!!
