Jeffrey Miles Sr. Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 27, 2025.
Jeffrey A. Miles, Sr., 70, of Daytona Beach, Florida, passed away on August 1, 2025. Born December 8, 1954, at St. Francis Hospital in Olean, NY.

Jeffrey was preceded in death by his beloved wife June Miles (2007); Parents, Evelyn Paoliello and Claude Miles; and his brother, Michael P. Miles.

Loving Father of Jeffrey (Anne) Miles II, Daughter Suzannah Miles; Grandchildren Alexis (Andrew), Joshua, Bret, and Austin; Stepsons, Aaron (Rebecca) Hooper, Timothy and Charles Charnisky. Brothers Kevin (Lisa) and Gary Miles; along with nieces, nephews, and friends who will never forget his humor, stories, and big heart.

Jeffrey proudly served his country in the US Air Force Active Duty from 1972 to 1974 in Ellsworth Base S. Dakota. To follow, he began his lifelong career as Foreman for Stroehmann's Bakery for 40 plus years. Upon retirement, went on to run the Lantern Motel in Allegany NY.

Jeffrey found joy in the simple things-watching football, cold beer in hand, hanging poolside or hot tub, playing cards, or sitting by a fire. His favorite pastimes were the love of watching son Jeff 's high school football. He wouldn't miss a game! Dragging Suz out on the dance floor any chance he got.

Jeffrey adored his many pets over the years who were always a part of the family. Most of all he loved spending time with those closest to him and would never pass up an opportunity for a little mischief or shenanigans to keep life exciting.

Jeffrey's life was one of love, laughter, and dedication to hard work. His family and friends will carry on his stories, his jokes, and his spirit for years to come.

A burial service will be held at 10am on September 6th at the St. Bernard Cemetery in Bradford PA. A celebration of Jeffrey's life will follow at 12 pm, St. Stephens Club, Olean NY, where all will raise a toast (fireball) in honor. Because as he would say "It's Always 5 O'Clock Somewhere."
