Miller Gardner’s funeral arrangements are set, but the family is still awaiting clarification

In honor of his 14-year-old son Miller Gardner, whose untimely and terrible death earlier this month in Costa Rica has shocked those closest to him, the family of former New York Yankees outfielder Brett Gardner has announced preparations for a private memorial service.

Miller died on March 21 while on vacation in Costa Rica with his family.

Miller, the son of Brett Gardner, will have a private service as his loved ones grieve his “unimaginable loss.”

The Post and Courier of Charleston, South Carolina, issued an obituary stating that Miller’s life will be celebrated at J. Henry Stuhr Northwoods Chapel at a later time.

The private service is only for family members and loved ones who are still in shock over what has been called a “unimaginable loss.”

The obituary states that “Miller’s passing will be felt for years in the hearts of his family, friends, teammates, teachers, coaches, and others.” “The family prays that others who share their grief will find joy and healing during this unfathomable time of loss.”

In a heartfelt obituary, Miller was remembered as athletic, adventurous, and full of heart.

Miller, who attended Pinewood Preparatory School in the eighth grade, was recalled as a bright, active student who loved athletics, adventure, and family. He regularly made the Honor Roll and was a proud member of the football and baseball teams.

The obituary went on to say, “His interests outside of school included golf, fishing, hunting, riding dirt bikes, and exploring new places with his family.” “The Gardner family will always treasure the memories they made together, the people they met, the places they visited, and the friends they made.”

In remembrance of Miller’s spirit of generosity and adventure, the family asked that donations be sent to the Make-A-Wish Foundation in place of flowers.

Miller’s 14 years were filled with adventures and friendships, and the memorial stated that he would like future kids to have the chance to make their own amazing memories.

First Responders in Costa Rica Discover Brett Gardner’s Son “Clinically Dead”

Miller was staying at the Arenas Del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Resort with his parents, Brett and Jessica Gardner, and elder brother, Hunter, when emergency personnel were contacted.

Dr. Kevin Gannon of Manuel Antonio Urgent Care said that when emergency personnel arrived, Miller was “clinically dead” and had no vital signs. He was declared dead after an effort at resuscitation lasted 30 minutes.

Asphyxiation was first taken into consideration by Costa Rican authorities, but they eventually decided against it. The possibility that Miller experienced an allergic response to medication prescribed for what seemed to be food sickness is currently being investigated by investigators. It was said that after eating out the previous evening, every member of the Gardner family fell ill.

Following the revelation, the family’s lodging, Arenas Del Mar, issued a statement. They expressed their sadness over the loss and said, “Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this extremely trying time.” “We are fully cooperating with authorities, and we do not know the factors that led to this tragic incident.”

Miller Gardner’s Autopsy Results Were Delayed During Costa Rica’s Crime Surge

There is now a significant backlog of medical examiners in Costa Rica as a result of a substantial increase in homicides committed by gang members in the area. The whole results of Miller’s autopsy might therefore not be available for several more months.

“As these drug gangs fight for territory, we’re seeing an increase in homicides, and each one of them requires an autopsy,” senior official Juan Pablo Alvarado Garcia told the Daily Mail. “It will take at least two to three months to complete the analysis and results.”

Approximately 63% of the over 1,800 homicides that have been reported in Costa Rica in the last two years are thought to have been related to organized crime.

Doctors Rule Out Asphyxiation in Miller Gardner’s Death While Examining Three New Theories

Alvarado said investigators have ruled out the first idea that the cause was asphyxiation from vomiting from food poisoning.

Three more options are currently being considered: an undiagnosed bacterial infection, an unpleasant or allergic reaction to medication used to treat the family’s symptoms, or results from neuropathology and histology testing.

Miller’s body has been given back to his family, as The Blast reported earlier on Monday.
