Miguel was an avid baseball aficionado.

In his early years he played semi-pro baseball.

Above everything in Miguel's life the two things he treasured most were his family and music both of which he embraced with fervent love.

The sounds of his voice and guitar will forever live on in the hearts of those he touched.
