Earl Don Giles' Obituary
EARL DON GILES
WENT HOME APRIL 17, 2020
Earl Don Giles of Jenks, Oklahoma entered into his eternal home in heaven April 17, 2020. He was born on November 10, 1933, in Spiro, Ok and
graduated from Spiro High School in 1951. While in High School Earl worked in photography and developing his own film. Shortly after graduation, he moved to Tulsa Ok and worked for Douglas Aircraft Company and MARSUCO before founding “Giles Printing Company” in 1958. Earl retired in 1995.
Earl’s hobby, vision, and passion was to introduce Internet Ministry into churches that had never had cameras, recorders, cassettes or DVD’s. He was a catalyst in starting audio ministry in various churches - thereby, providing shut-ins with the opportunity for watching church services in their homes.
During his life, Earl had several passions. For the past 12 years, he loved volunteering at Manna House Ministries where he brought the Ministry into the 21st century by computerizing and organizing their complete operation and monthly reporting for the Food Bank. His 18 years of volunteering for the Community Care Senior Health Plan was also a highlight in his life.
Earl is survived by Judy (Johnson) Robertson, his loving wife of 38 years. Daughters, Pamela (and Don) Hammonds of Ashland, Kentucky and Stephanie Giles and Ann Walker of Tulsa, Ok. Son, Scott Robertson of Jenks Ok. He was blessed with six grand-children, Aaron Walker and Alyson Walker of Tulsa Ok, Ethan Hammonds of Ashland Ky, Karl (and Cara) Hammonds of Paducah Ky, Kevin (and Katie) Hammonds of Bozeman MT, Mark (and Hollis) Hammonds of Tampa FL and five great-grandchildren. Preceding him in death were his parents, Earl Evan and Sylvia (Goines) Giles.
A Celebration of Life gathering is pending at First Baptist Church, Tulsa. (after COVID 19 Lockdown is lifted.)
In lieu of flowers, Memorials may be made to: Manna House Ministries 4921 E Admiral Place, Tulsa, Ok 74115
