Bryce P. Giles

Bryce P. Giles, 21, Wausau, died Sunday November 15, 2020 as the result of a motor vehicle accident.

He was born October 14, 1999 in Wausau, son of Christine (Mogenson) Giles and the late Jason P. Giles.

Bryce attended and graduated from the Wisconsin National Challenge Academy/Wausau West High School in December 2017, six months ahead of his class. The Challenge Academy motivated Bryce to excel and propelled him to several achievements he was very proud of.

Bryce began his working career at the age of 14 by providing his own lawn care business. He then started working for Integrity Grading and Excavating. For the past 2 years, he was employed as a heavy equipment operator at PGA.  He loved his job there and said, "Do what you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life."  For the past several years, Bryce did snowplowing for area businesses.

With a lifestyle that embraced outdoor activities, his favorites were four wheeling, camping, fishing, snowmobiling, and most of all working in his garage on all his vehicles. He also attended Iola car show each year with his Buick Reatta. Bryce had so many amazing friends that he was extremely grateful for.

Bryce will always be remembered by his big smile and the way he would light up the room. He was an amazing brother, son, and friend.
