Obituary
ELKHART — Jeremiah A. "Miah" Saiz, 26, of Elkhart, passed away peacefully in his home following an extended illness at 6:10 p.m. Friday, Sept. 25.
He was born Nov. 5, 1988, in San Antonio, to Leo Saiz of San Antonio and Mary Alice (Saldivar) Saiz of Elkhart.
He married Angela "Angie" Carothers on June 28, 2008, in Elkhart. She survives at home.
Also surviving are his brothers, Joshua, Jordan and Jonathon Saiz, and sisters Crystal, Stephanie and JoLynn Saiz, all of Elkhart; nieces and nephews Jayden, Santana, Kolton, Anthony, Annalyce and Heather; his grandparents, Raul Saldivar, Manuela Sanchez and Rosa Pacheco; his godson, Matthuew Wallin; and his dog, Roxie.
Preceding him in death were his sister, Jocylen Saiz; brother Leo Saiz Jr.; and his great-grandmother, Consuelo Longoria.
A celebration of Miah's life will take place Thursday, Oct. 1, at Granger Missionary Church, 50841 Birch Road, Granger, with viewing from 5 to 7 p.m. His funeral service will follow at 7 p.m. Pastor Jaree Kratzer will officiate. In accordance with his wishes, cremation will take place following the service.
Arrangements have been placed under the care and direction of Billings Funeral Home of Elkhart.
Miah was an avid sports fanatic who embraced all teams from Texas, including the Longhorns, Cowboys and Spurs. He also adopted the Boston Red Sox, probably figuring they should have been from Texas as well.
He loved to spend time with his nieces and nephews and would spoil them at every chance. He also enjoyed playing video games and fishing with his wife. He will be best remembered for his rapid fire knowledge of sports statistics and his genuine love for his family.
Memorial donations may be given to the Hospice Foundation, or to Miah's Memorial Fund in care of his spouse, Angie. Online condolences may be left at www.billingsfuneralhome.com.
