Janet, Tommy and Family: I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Your Dad was very lucky to have you, Janet, to care for him always. Your love and devotion was admirable. Tommy you are a great man for caring for Mr. Galgay the way you did. I know that you and your family will find peace in knowing that your Dad is now at peace, resting with your Mom.

Mr. Galgay,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Just learned of Uncle Jimmy's passing. So very sad to hear but know that somehow "the boys" are altogether once again. In heaven their IRISH eyes are smiling. My mother, sisters and families have you and yours in our prayers.

Sorry to read about Jim's passing. He was a great friend to my Dad and a companion to my Mom in their latter years. May he rest in peace with Marjorie and Jay.

Susan, Philip, Beth, Janet, Tommy and Margie,
I was really saddened to hear of Uncle Jims passing yesterday. Kath and I were just talking about him Sunday. All the memories of Lexington Street and the Cape, the Ford station wagon on Uncle Rolf Road with your Uncle Dave. Sailing on the Sunfish off Dennisport, or knocking back a few up at the chalet. It’s always been the small things that stick in my memory, like sleeping over and eating the yowzie meatloaf Margie made. And more recent memories like seeing Jim dancing with all his girls at our wedding.
Of course, looking back on Uncle Jim, I can’t help but think of an Irish proverb.
"Friends and relatives, so fond and dear, 'tis our greatest pleasure to have you here. When many years this day has passed, fondest memories will always last. So we drink a cup of Irish mead and ask God's blessing in your hour of need."
We are so sorry for your loss. He was a great man and we’ll miss him.
