  2. I’m so deeply sorry for your loss.

    Miles was one of my closest friends. We used to just sit and talk for hours about our cars or about how he’s about to get another one because he was bored of the one he had. Anytime I called he’d answer and have some new crazy story to tell me, sometimes he’d even just show up outside my house and call me to tell me to hangout with him. I couldn’t begin to understand what you’re going through. I’d love to come down and chat about some stories about him, help keep your spirits up if possible.

    With deepest sympathy,
    – Noir

  3. My condolences to the loved ones and his family, Ethan was an amazing person and I’m beyond sad to hear this news. I was hoping to see him grow as a person my heart hurts for him. If I could know any more details about future plans I would like to be apart. Thank you rest in paradise my friend.

  15. Grew up with Ethan. Spent pretty much every day at his house after school when he lived in Manteo. Was always a bright soul in a dark room, would do everything he could to make everyone around him laugh, even when he was going through something himself. He has a great spot in Heaven now next to his father. I am truly blessed to have been able to call him a friend. Rest easy, brother ❤️

  17. Ethan was one of my best of friends from middle through highschool in manteo. He was a regular in our friend group. I would often wake up to him knocking at my door at 2am just to hangout. He cared deeply about his friends. He was one of the funniest friends I have ever had. He never failed to make us burst out in laughter. He loved to swing by and show me his newest modifications to his car, or ask for help working on them. I know he is up there watching over all of his friends, he never failed to let us know he truly cared. Ironically, even though he was one of my funniest friends, there were many times when we shared the deepest of conversations. Both Ethan and his family will remain in my prayers. I love and miss you bro💙 thank you for being the best of friends.

  18. My sincere condolences being offered to family and friends. I pray good memories hold you until you meet again.

  19. I remember being used to seeing Miles at a lot of our local car meets here in Virginia Beach. Every time he got out of his car he never failed to have a smile on his face and enjoy the company of others around him. He was always sociable and quick to strike up a conversation, whether he was talking about a recent mod on his car or just catching up on life with those around him. While I didn’t know him as well as many, I can say that Miles was an amazing friend and an even better person. Even in the brief moments we shared, his genuine spirit left a lasting impression on me and I will never take it for granted. I want to extend my deepest condolences to his family and friends. Please know that you are in our thoughts during this incredibly difficult time. Rest in peace, Miles. Much love as always ❤️

Ethan Nicolas Miles

June 4, 2026

Ethan Nicolas Miles, 23, tragically passed away on June 4, 2026. He was born in Nags Head, North Carolina on July 29, 2002. He is survived by his mom, Victoria Miles; sister, Shyanne and brother-in-law Joseph Gomez; and his niece and nephew, Kira and Ezra. He is also survived by his loving aunts and uncles (Maggie Miles, Immie and Jeremy Russell, Ellen and John Amarosa, and Nicole Vrohidis); grandfather, Lou Miles; grandmother, Genna Miles; cousins and many cherished family and friends. He is preceded in death by his father, Shane M. Miles, and his maternal grandparents, Nicolas Vrohidis and Phylis Parker.

Ethan grew up on the Outer Banks and delighted all with his smile and shining personality. As a child, he was silly, creative, and artistic. His friendships knew no boundaries, as those from all walks of life remember him as a light in the darkness of this world. Ethan lived his life with tenacity and love, finding joy in music, cars, and spending time with his friends. He left this earthly plane in peace alongside his girlfriend, Brooke Hibbard.

His family mourns this incredible loss, but they find comfort in knowing that Ethan’s bright spirit and the love he shared will live on in the hearts of everyone who knew him. He will be deeply missed but never forgotten.

A celebration of life for Ethan Miles will be held at 6pm on June 18, 2026 at Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the Outer Banks – 831 Herbert Perry Road Kitty Hawk, NC 27949. Due to the outpouring of support and limited space the family encourages carpooling.
