Home in Heaven
It is with a sad yet joyful heart that I tell you that Gary has gone home to heaven where he belongs. The last few weeks we knew that the cancer had spread past a point that we were able to fight. We were able to make him comfortable and be by his side as he breathed his last this side of heaven.
Please join us for our celebration of Gary's life at his memorial service, held Tuesday, April 20th at 4:00 pm at Hope Community Church in Andover, Kansas. A barbecue, "Gary Style", will be held at our home in Elbing immediately following the service.
Each and every one of you has been an important person in Gary's life. As he told us this week, there is nothing more important than our relationship with God and our relationships with each other. We want thank you all for your prayers and support - you have all been wonderful to our family during this time.
If you would like to send comments for the family, feel free to post them here or send to garywgiles@me.com.

Update
This is Leah doing an update for my dad.
The CAT Scan and further test show that the cancer has spread to Gary's stomach. Due to the rapid spread, continuing chemo is not a good option. We are keeping him home with hospice and we are trying to make him as comfortable as possible in these last few weeks. Please pray that Gary would be in as little pain as possible and that our family would have the strength for the care we need to give him.
We appreciate your prayers,
Leah
