After a life well lived, Henry passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, September 30, 2023 just four days after his 95th birthday. Reunited with the love of his life, Marjorie (Merkel)(March 9, 2022). Dear father of Derry Gilles and Donna and Bill Andrews. Cherished grandfather of Craig and Julie Frede, Ryan Frede and Jennifer Armstrong, Kyle and Candice Frede, Karlee and Adam Baglieri, Melanie and Garrett Ruesen. Proud great-grandfather of nine great-grandchildren. Brother-in-law of Marlene Gilles, Sally Jane Roberts and Jim Merkel. Remembered by many nieces, nephews, and their families.
Predeceased by his parents Oliver and Ida Gilles, brothers Roy Gilles, Earl Gilles, and Alfred Gilles, sister Leona Gromeder, brother-in-law George Gromeder, and great-granddaughter Ava Baglieri. Henry was a longtime resident of St. Jacobs where he worked delivering milk by horse and buggy, working at the Blacksmith Shop, and eventually working for home Hardware until he retired at the age of 70. Henry was a faithful and devout member of St. James Lutheran Church, St. Jacobs.
