Lawrence T. Gallagher, Jr., age 74, of Green Acres, FL, passed away on June 14, 2025, after a courageous battle against Alzheimer's Disease. Larry was born and raised in Brighton, MA and graduated from Catholic Memorial High School and then Bentley College.

He is survived by his wife, Barbara (Accaputo) Gallagher, his daughters, Lisa Gallagher (Zach Raymond) and Lauren Gallagher Quinn (Erich) of Newton MA, his stepdaughter, Jennifer Roan (Michael) of Bridgewater, MA, and his sister, Eleanor Therrien and family.

"Papa" will not be forgotten by his grandsons, Timothy, Matthew and Drew Mendicina, and JP (John Paul) Alessi Jr. of Newton, MA.

Larry was predeceased by his parents, Lawrence and Doris Gallagher, his sisters, Ann and Carolyn Gallagher, and his stepson, Donald Locchi.

His career was markedly spent at Checkmate, Intellutions, and then retiring from GE. He loved to golf and spend time with family and friends.
