Daniel Marc Miller

Daniel Marc Miller, 23, passed away on April 25, 2009 in Moscow, Idaho. Daniel was born in Bremerton, Washington on January 20, 1986 and lived there until 1991 when his family moved to Homedale, Idaho. Daniel attended elementary, middle and high school in Homedale, graduating from Homedale High School in 2004 before attending the University of Idaho. Daniel was a son, a brother, a cousin, a grandson, a nephew, and a friend to countless people during his life. Daniel had a positive outlook on life and a faith that no matter how great the problem was, it would be resolved. His attitude and demeanor made those around him realize how special life could be and that time should be taken to enjoy it. Daniel had a wonderful sense of humor and a quick wit, neither of which he ever hesitated to share with those around him. Since he was a young boy, Daniel loved to make others laugh and to share the joy that he had. He was an eternal optimist and his enthusiasm for life was apparent to all who knew him. Daniel had a passion for music and loved to attend concerts with his brothers, cousins and friends. During his middle school and high school years Daniel had no greater joy than playing football and always enjoyed watching games to cheer on his two favorite teams, the Idaho Vandals and the Dallas Cowboys. Friendship and friends were gifts that Daniel treasured and he always surrounded himself with those he loved. Daniel, although you were taken away from us suddenly and too soon, we know that you knew Jesus, are in heaven with our Lord and have a peace that is unknown to us in this life. We treasure the time that we had with you and cherish all the memories of you. Daniel, in your short time here you made such an impact on so many people. Your quick smile and zeal for life spoke volumes to everyone around you. In your short twenty-three years, you made your mark on this world. Your kind nature and love for others were qualities that always shone through. Daniel, you will be missed greatly and even though you are gone, your impact on our lives has only just begun. Our memories of you and the time we had with you will continue to live on in our hearts and minds. Daniel was preceded in death by his grandfathers Roy C. Miller and U.D. Asumendi, and by his uncle Mark Miller. He is survived by his father and mother, Bruce and Benita; his brothers Nicolas, Benjamin, and Andrew; his grandmothers Dolores Asumendi and Madelaine Miller; numerous aunts, uncles and cousins who were all very close to him. In lieu of flowers, the family prefers that you make memorial donations in the name of Daniel Marc Miller to University of Idaho, College of Letters, Arts and Social Sciences.
