Thomas Galbraith Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Pittsburgh Cremation & Funeral Care - Robinson Township on Dec. 11, 2024.
Thomas R. Galbraith of Finleyville, formerly of Bethel Park, PA, passed away on December 1, 2024, at the age of 58. He was the son of the late Thomas W. Galbraith and Geraldine M. Wozniak.
Tom was the beloved husband of 26 years to Jennifer Laffin Galbraith and loving father to Jack, Tommy and Grace. He is survived by his siblings; Nancie Cox, Wayne (Margita) Galbraith and Julianne (Sean) Brosnahan and many nieces and nephews.
A 1985 graduate of Bethel Park High School, Tom earned a degree in Computer-Aided Drafting & Design from Pittsburgh Technical Institute. He went on to build a successful career as the owner of a landscape design and construction business, creating beautiful projects that can be seen throughout the South Hills of Pittsburgh.
He found joy in creating artwork that his family will cherish for years to come. He had a crazy sense of humor and a passion for the outdoors, which were defining qualities of his character. He also had a deep admiration for all things military and those who served.
Tom will be deeply missed, but his legacy of love, laughter, and kindness will live on in the hearts of his family and friends.
At the family's request, services will be private.
