So sad to hear of his passing. I knew him back in 2013 I believe he trained me at OG. He was a funny and awesome guy! Glad to have known him he had a silly sense of of humor too. Rest easy Galen!

I didnt know Galen very long but the for the few short months of our friendship he always made me laugh with his dorky comments. He was a very good friend to me. Rest easy Galen.
