Rev. Charles G. Gallagher

Wonderful Father Well like great man rest in peace

Fr. Gallagher,
we worked a good few years together on the Sursum Corda. Your dedication and timely manner with the publication every other month was unwaivering. You brought stories and comments to your retired friends and never forgot birthdays.
You will be missed,
your Irish friend Dell at The Mission Press

Father Gallagher was not only a wonderful priest, he was a dear friend to me and all the Smedley family. He offered spiritual guidance and served as a confidante. He will be sorely missed and I pray that he is now rejoicing with Jesus and the angels in heaven. Peace be with you, Father G.

I just hears of Fathers passing. He was a good friend and guide to many children at Divine Infant in Westchester. He personally was a help to me when I went to school there in the 50's. He will be missed by many. I will say Mass for him this week.

Fr. Gallagher was an inspiration to me. I am grateful to have known him when he served as chaplain to the Sisters of Mercy at Mercy Convent.

We are so happy that you were a big part of our lives in so many ways. Thank you for your friendship. We love you!

We moved to Countryside just about the time Fr. Gallagher arrived at St. Cletus to become the second Pastor. We attended his first School Board Meeting. We were trying to decide where to send Tim and Mike to school. After he was introduced he was asked if he would like to say something. He stood up said, "I'm going to take the advice of a trusted and admired friend, I'll make changes slowly". Something about him said he was special. Our decision was made. Fr. Gallagher went on to work with...

Fr. Gallagher will always be remembered with love, for all he did for our family.

My condolence's too all Father Gallagher family... He certainly fought the good fight ...I had the privilege to see Father most every day... and attend many liturgies...that Father celebrated...I have known many priest in my days...they were good men... but when I compare then to Father Gallagher... He was the best.May the angels take him off to paradise...and receive your reward Father G. Lovingly, and with care, Maureen, employee of Mercy Convent...
