The Ramsey native died Dec. 17, just six days shy of his 29th birthday. Meile, a triplet, grew up playing football alongside his brothers, Matt and Billy. He was "the youngest but the largest," a feature article in the Times Union reads. Dec. 23, 2020 was the first day Billy and Matt have ever celebrated their birthday without their big-little bro.
