So fortunate that Uncle George has been a part of my life. He always put a smile on everyone around him and I will never forget that great laugh. He will always be loved and missed.

Miss and Love you Uncle George.

It was in the 1940s when I met the Gallagher family and George and Rita were already married. After the war the family grew but always remained very close. We sure had a lot of fun. George was a "looker on the bright side" and survived adversity with his attitude. He and Rita lived their faith and we benefitted. A loving goodbye George. Dorothy Gallagher

A great and good man has left us and we are all the poorer for that. His smiling, twinkling eyes will be missed, most of all by those who were close to him- and they are many.His "cousins" in Ireland send their prayers.

Judy and the Pappas Family - My sincere sympathies. Always happy and caring whenever I saw him, he was a great neighbor to my folks. What a wondeful life he had. He will be missed. Though it is hard now, rejoice in his faith.

My husband and I had the pleasure of living next door to George for the past year and a half. His sense of humor and gleaming smile will be missed. We are sorry for your loss and are praying for your family during this most difficult time.

Dearest Uncle George had the most fantastic sense of humor. He enjoyed the children in the family immensely and enjoyed actually playing with them (Yes, even in his 90s). Loved hearing stories from the past from my mom about some of the things Uncle George would do when they were younger. Hilarious.
Love you Uncle George. Everyone does. Nancy
