Miles Grayson Owen was born February 27, 2016 (at 24 weeks gestation) in the Medical Center of Arlington, and lived there for the next twenty-three days. He was an incredibly strong spirit - the single strongest little being his mother ever knew. However, he lost his fight a little after 8:00 A.M. on Monday, March 21, 2016. His mother, Molly Owen, was assisted by his aunt Samantha Owen and his uncle Art Grossman in staying by his side continually throughout his struggle. The whole family was in support of his fight to live. They know that his grandmother, Sylvia Owen, who passed away in 2014, was waiting for him, to greet him, scoop him up, and give him all the kisses she would have wanted to give him in life. He taught his mother so much in such a small amount of time. Patience, that “not being in control” is OK, STRENGTH, and an insane amount of love, and the desire to be a better version of self. In addition to the love and support of his family, Miles had an amazing nursing staff at the Medical Center NICU who loved and cared for him as if he were their own. He is survived by his mother, Molly Owen of Fort Worth; his uncles and aunts, Terry and Debbie Owen of Minnesota, Jerry and Kristy Owen of Rockwall, Tracy and Tommy Owen of Corsicana, Kevin and Michelle Henderson of Rockwall, Karen Bailey of Rockwall, Samantha Owen and Matt Reid of Fort Worth, and Art Grossman of Fort Worth; his “Crazy Papa” grandfather Doc Owen of Personville; and numerous cousins.
