We know Paul will be greatly missed.We will always have such fond memories of our many Easter trips to Miami, and spending Easter Sunday at the Condos and on the beach with your lovely, awesome family.

For the very short time in which I knew Paul, he was a lively personality and good person. We had a lot of fun on a Fishing Trip to Eagle Lake, Ontario, Canada, despite not catching any Muskies. I'd like to thank Dan O'Connell, at AJ Gallagher, for arranging the Fishing Trip that enabled me to meet Paul. He was a genuine person, on of integrity, and not a lot of fishing skills. But, he was fun to hang with during our trip. I thought for sure that we would do some additional trips to Canada. But, for various reasons, we all got extra busy, or something prevented some of us from making the trip again. So, I can honestly say that I regret not meeting up with Paul once again... we exchanged some brief emails, etc.... but, it is not the same as a Fishing Trip. God Bless Paul. I'm sure he's touched many others in his life, albeit sometimes very brief. I extend my Condolences to his Wife, who is far too young to be a Widow, and the rest of his Family. I raise a Pint of Guinness to Mr. Paul Gallagher, while Danny Boy plays (appropriately) in the background. Once again, God Bless!! :^(

Paul's spirit is one with so much light and love and kindness for everyone. My prayers continue to be with Helen and the Family Gallagher for their grieving. I know Paul has a special place in God's light because he shone his light so brightly on everyone during his short visit here on Earth. He demonstrated how to be a forgiving and selfless person. Paul, thank you.

I have such fond memories of Paul's playful spirit. He's been such a friendly person since he was a little boy, and I remember his piercing blue eyes going back that far. It's so hard to understand how or why a man with such a warm heart has been struck down like this. I'll always remember Paul, and we will make a donation to the ABTA today in his name & memory. I'm with you all in spirit, and hope to see you in the coming year.

Only from childhood memories do I remember Paul as a fun energetic kid. As an adult I can't imagine loosing someone so young. My heartfelt condolences to all the Gallaghers and extended family.

I would see Paul over the years during his vacations to Florida. We all knew and loved him at the Hillcrest. I especially remember how kind he was to my elderly Mother and Father. My deepest condolences to all who are grieving his loss.

I didn't know Paul that well, but from our years at Loyola Academy, he left an impression on me. He was a great guy and a very smart person. I'm shocked that we lost him so young, and I'm saddened knowing the world is less bright without him.

I first met Paul working at Enterprise, and he was the nicest guy to me and helped show me the ropes. My wife Susan and I went to dinner with Paul and Helen, and we could feel the love they had for each other. Our deepest sympathies to Helen, and the rest of Paus great family.

Paul was the embodiment of a Man for Others. He was a joy to be around and seemed to always have a smile and a kind word. The world is a lesser place without him and I hope and pray that his spirit remains in those lucky enough to have known him.

I knew Paul in college - we shared a suite with 2 others one semester. He was as nice a person as I ever knew. Kind, considerate, thoughtful are just a few of the adjectives that described him so many years ago and clear resonate today. May he rest in peace. Until we meet again my friend. My sincerest condolences to Paul's wife and family.

The world lost one of the truly good ones with Paul's far too early passing. I knew him from Loyola and the shows at Regina. I miss him already. He was such a warm, caring person - an inspiration to all. God Bless him, God Bless Helen and God Bless his entire family.
Until we meet again...
