"Miller was a beloved son and brother and we cannot yet comprehend our life without his infectious smile. He loved football, baseball, golf, hunting, fishing, his family and his friends. He lived life to the fullest every single day."
The couple also expressed deep gratitude for the support and encouragement they've received during this incredibly difficult time.
"We are confident our faith, family, and friends will help us navigate this unimaginable loss," they wrote in the statement. "Our prayers go out to Miller's teammates and friends, as well as to all other families who have lost a child far too soon as we share their grief.

Brett Gardner, a former outfielder, spent his entire 14-season MLB career with the Yankees. He was part of the team that won the World Series in 2009, just one year after making his debut. He retired following the 2021 season.

"We grieve with Brett, Jessica, Hunter and their community of family and friends in mourning the loss of Miller, who had a spark in his eyes, and an outgoing and feisty personality, and a warm and loving nature," the statement added.
