Uncle Giles passed away on February 26, 2008. His website lives in remembrance of all the work he did. This warm gentle man is missed by many.

Giles was a friend of mine and it was an honor for me to help him with his website. He was proud to tell people that he had a website despite the fact that he never owned a computer. It is my desire to keep GilesClark.com up and running.

Here are some thoughts from people who loved Giles:

Met Giles in the summer of 1975 on the "Minominee Experience" a summer camp in wisconsin, we were near Wautoma, then out west, he told the kids stories, sang us songs, and kidded around with us, ( i was a counselor on the trip) he had a real dry sense of humor that made us laugh. Always wondered what happened to him, we took him as a real nice, and caring person, rest his soul.

I attended Shattuck High School in the mid-70's. Giles worked as a substitute teacher at the time and it was not unusual to see him wandering the halls just before class time. Whenever he would be sighted, the hope always was that he would be teaching one of my classes. If you had Giles Clark as a sub, it meant a full hour of lively discussions about local history, health food, exercise, or whatever was on his mind. Of course that meant totally ignoring the course content. But in those short hours, without even realizing it, I learned so much more . He was a guaranteed high point of the day. At the time, I was also an avid cyclist and so was Giles. It was always a pleasure to run in to him on rides.

What more can I say? For the short time that I knew him, he served as a role model that influences me to this day. I am sure that he touched others the same way. Thanks Giles!
