He is a wise, caring, genuine man who has experienced a lot by being the keeper of all the memories the community has. He has good memories, bad memories, sad memories, scary memories, and many more. It is amazing that Giver is so selfless that he can give memories away to Jonas and not be greedy and keep them all to himself
