I worked with Giles at Norwood High School. We were both faculty members who taught history.
I always respected Giles for his skills in the classroom. He was the consummate gentleman.
He used to tell me about his son's involvement

wonderful coach and mentor. I am truly sorry to
hear of his passing. He was a very decent man and I am glad that I got to know him...
