NORMAN FFOLLIOTT GYLES
April 21, 1933 - April 11, 2019
He was predeceased by his wife, Francis Evelyn Gyles. Together they shared 62 years of marriage, and five children, Jennifer, Geoffrey, Heather, Norman, and Garry. He is survived by his three siblings, five children, ten grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.
Norman was born and raised in Fort Garry. He was the eldest of five children born to William and Wilma Gyles. During his varied career, Norman worked and volunteered for a number of years, at the Canadian Cancer Society. He felt one of his greatest achievements was as a coordinator for the Terry Fox and Steve Fonyo cancer runs.
Norman was a longtime member and actively involved with Alcoholics Anonymous. He enjoyed hunting, playing Bridge, fishing, politics, camping, tennis, swimming, meeting new people, and cooking.
He will always be remembered for his honesty, sense of humour, and storytelling.
The funeral service will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, April 20, 2019, Thomson "In the Park" Funeral Home, 1291 McGillivray Boulevard.
Special thanks to the caring staff at Grace Hospital.

I’ve been thinking about your Dad a lot lately, wondering how he was doing etc. now I know! I send you my deepest condolences, prayers, and love! Both your parents where always sooo kind to me, at times when I needed it the most and I don’t think they even realized it, because it was their nature to be kind and understanding! I’m sorry I can’t be with you all on Saturday but I’m sick as a dog and you don’t need what I have! with love, Nancy (Dunn) - Posted by: Nancy Dunn (Close friend) on: Apr 17, 2019
