Paul C. Miles
Not one to be easily upset by life, Skip’s attitude is best summed up in his favorite quotation, “Those who cannot survive disaster do not deserve success.” That says it all.

Paul Cutler ‘Skip’ Miles Obituary
Paul Cutler MILES Paul Cutler (Skip) Miles left us suddenly on Saturday, May 22nd 2010. Words cannot express how much his devoted wife, Bobbi, and his loving children, Joshua and Rebecca, will miss him.
Paul was born into a military family on April 6th 1954, and was himself a 1978 graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point. He served his country in the Army for six years. He then went on to earn an MBA from Duke University in 1988. Upon graduation, he returned with his family to Seattle. Paul was an investment advisor for Edward Jones, a career for which he was perfectly suited. He felt no greater reward than the opportunity to help others that this profession afforded him. In his off time, he could usually be found on his bicycle.
Paul's trail of friends was wide and varied, but they especially included Kirby and Booth.
He is survived by his mother, Martha, his sisters Jane (and Garry), Julia (and Rich), Jennifer (and Mike) and his brothers David (and Debbie), John (and Donna), Mark (and Carol), Lou and Dee Gabrielsen as well as his many nieces and nephews. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, May 29th 2010, at 2:00 pm at Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church, 2400 NW 85th St, Seattle WA 98117 with a reception to follow in the Fellowship Hall. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you send a donation to the Lake Cavanaugh Fire Auxiliary, 35058 South Shore Dr., Suite A, Mount Vernon, WA 98274, Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church or the charity of your choice.
Dearest Skip, your work here is done. Be thou at peace. Love, Bobbi
