<b>William Remington Miles
MILES, William Remington — Age 71, of Roseburg, Oregon, passed away on February 9, 2006, after a long and courageous battle with cancer, at home with his family at his bedside. William was born on January 12, 1935, in Portland Oregon, to Edward and Louisa Miles. William served proudly in the U.S. Marine Corps, serving one tour in Korea and two tours in Vietnam. He enlisted on July 29, 1952, and retired on December 31, 1972. On March 16, 1956, he married Lola Bullard. This March would have been their 50th wedding anniversary. They moved to Roseburg in 1981, where he volunteered at CASA for many years. William loved to ride his motorcycle and family was most important to him. His miniature horse ranch in Dixonville, Oregon, was his pride and joy. He loved this country and frequently called Oregon "God's Country". He enjoyed the green hills, the mountains and the trees. William is survived by his wife, Lola Miles of Roseburg; his son, Patrick Miles of Goodyear, Arizona; daughters, Julie Rowan and Mari-jo Miles, both of Roseburg; eight brothers and sisters; and four grandchildren.
