Oh what a previlge to get to know Dean and the family, I always knew the Giles, but not until this year did I get personally aquainted with them, I know God brings people into our lives for a reason, I have no doute that Dean and William were meant to be in mine, what wonderful examples of a Loving and caring Marriage.

Dean Giles was one of the nicest ladies that I was proud to call my friend. She was so good to me when I went to PG High. I used to help her in the office. She helped me to receive "perfect attendance" in the 10th grade and also helped me get a job at the school after my sophomore year. I will always remember how good she was to me. Sandra
