Myles meant a lot to me and I miss him a lot. When we went to Squamish to compete in the mine rescue competition he amazed the top professionals at how quickly he could learn every aspect of a Drager BG4 and I was so glad to see his success. Getting to see the smile on his face every day in the mining club room always brightened my day. His dedication during geer week and the passion he showed for mining engineering inspired me every time things got difficult.
My favorite memory of Myles is when he threw a whole bucket of whipped cream on me for charity. We took a picture together after and it hurts to look at. His smile always brought warmth and comfort. Myles always knew how to see things in a better light and being with him helped me see the good of something when it wasn't apparent.
Every moment I got to be with Myles he was always ready to face any challenge. It hurts to know that I won't get to see more of the great things he was going to do. I am devasted losing such a light in my life.
