Not sure what to say?

Bridget and Family, I'm so sorry to just have learned of Mr. Gallinger's passing in November. Bridget, I don't know if you will recall, but back in college I had the pleasure of meeting your parents with you and other friends at their Seaside home. Have moved to Dallas, TX, but still get to the Seaside area a few times a year. I always think of you and your family. My deepest condolences and best wishes for peace of mind and heart for you and your family. Dan Blaufus

Dear Gallinger Family,

We immediately saw Joe as a man of distinction and resolve. In his presence, one felt his total attention and concern, which immediately put you at ease. This seems to be a family trait.
As you Celebrate the Life of this great man, please know we are with you in love and prayers.

Dear Gallinger Family,
I remember Joe while I was a seminarian from Mt Angel stationed at Our Lady of Victory with Fr. George Wolf in the summer of 1991. Joe and Romemary were truly gifted people who offered so much of themselves to teh Parish community. Joe did have that distinctive laugh that was really warm and infectious. He was always willing to offer a hand to anyone who asked. I will remember him very fondly. Most sicerely,
Mike O'Phelan
