Obituary

David Benjamin Rafael Neuroth Miller passed away unexpectedly at the young age of 27 in his home on April 4, 2017. He was born on October 8, 1989 in Arlington, WA, the son of Diane Neuroth of Ferndale, WA and David Miller of Bellingham, WA. He attended Meridian High School, ultimately earning his G.E.D. and also attended BTC.
David Benjamin was the youngest in a family of twin sisters, ten half-sisters and brothers, and two step-siblings. He was a very sweet, kind, loving, and generous young man who dearly loved his family and friends. Growing up he loved skateboarding with friends, and over the last few years had found joy in riding horses with his sister Dianna and helping her with grooming and cleaning saddles. He also cherished his time spent with the family cat, Deezle, who he loved and adored, and the family dog, Abby. He had a real love for all animals. David Benjamin had a green thumb, growing beautiful garden vegetables, flowers, and other plant, as well as a love for baking cookies and treats. Furthermore, he enjoyed making homemade cards for family members that were very thoughtful and loving, spending time outdoors, and spending deeply cherished time with his mom.
David Benjamin was preceded in death by his grandparents George and Patricia Neuroth, Rabbi Rafael Levine and Reeva Levine, Maurice Miller, and step-grandparents Fred and Clara Wigren.
David Benjamin is survived by his mother Diane Neuroth of Ferndale, WA, his father David Miller Pharm. D (Nancy) of Bellingham, WA; Siblings, Reuben Ferguson, Nathaniel Ferguson, Rebecca Ferguson, JoAnna Ferguson, all of Ferndale, WA, Dianna Miller of Bellingham, WA, Davida Leland (Jeremiah) of Lynden, WA, Rana Miller, Pamela Miller, Shushana Nenni (Dan), Mia Miller, Elisa Miller, and Jeremy Miller all of California; and step-siblings Jennifer Gay (Tom Nelson) of Richmond Virginia, and Jeremy Gay (Tamera) of Bellingham, WA. He is also survived by fifteen nieces and nephews, and countless aunts, uncles, and cousins.
There is an emptiness now in our lives that cannot be filled by anyone else and he will be missed so dearly. Our hearts are filled with much grief and sorrow with the loss of our son, brother, uncle, nephew, and friend to many.

  1. I wanted to say how very sorry I am for your loss. I am on staff at the lighthouse Mission and got to know David a little during his visits with us during the last year. He always had a smile and a kind word for those around him and a good sense of humor.
    Your family is in my prayers

    He was always the kindest person, always so full of love. Even in his hardest moments, there was still love. That will truthfully be the biggest thing for me, in my memory will always stand out is HOW MUCH he truly loves.I purposefully use current tense, because his love will live in in all of us.
    I wish I could be half as caring to people passing by in my life as he was.
    A truly great soul.

  3. So sorry for your loss. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

  4. Deeply sorry for your loss. May the brief years of love that lighted Ben’s life shine always in your hearts. God speed. Rest in peace.

    Ben did like that little black cat Deezel, you could tell by how his eyes lit and smile warmed. You can tell much about a person by how they treat animals. Ben was kind and caring with them just as he was with family and friends.Heavens gain is surely our loss.
    I will always keep his smile in my memory. It is a gift he gave me.
