Milford A. Fleig (Mil) died peacefully in his home December 12, 2023, surrounded by his loving daughters. Mil was born in 1929 in Iowa and was married to his loving wife, Shirley Fleig for 69 years prior to her death in October 2023. He is survived by his three daughters, Jill Reynolds (Mark) of Cedar Crest, NM, Jodi Haines of Santa Fe, and Jane Fleig (Erica) of Bloomington, IN. He was truly the best girl-dad ever. He is also survived by two grandchildren, Misty Haines Hartman and Jace Reynolds.
Mil retired from the State Highway Department, where he was a landscape architect who helped design all of the rest areas in New Mexico as well as multiple highway beautification projects. Mil was a big proponent of using native and xeric grasses and plants. He was also a Santa Fe City volunteer firefighters for many years prior to the city adding a paid force. Mil loved being outdoors and particularly loved wandering the state of New Mexico. Everyone who knew Mil loved him and he will be greatly missed.
In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Santa Fe Animal Shelter to honor his last and favorite dog, Polly, who loved him beyond all things.
