Triste,
I am so very sorry for you and your family's loss. I will never forget how wonderful your mother was to me when I would go and play with you when I was just a girl. She was the sweetest lady and I know she is going to be missed. I will pray that God will bring peace and comfort to you and your family. God bless you Triste. Much Love to you.

To the Wiley Family:
Sorry to hear about the loss of Mrs. Galen, I was a piano student of her's, I've known her since September 2008. I thank God that I had a chance to know her; she was so sweet, patient, loving and kind. I enjoyed meeting with her once a week.
God needed another angel, someone He knew would care, someone who always thought of others and when needed was always there. As the gates of heaven opened, Jesus met her there and all of heaven rejoiced, God needed another angel there. I'm praying God will hold each of you close throughout your time of sorrow, giving you His peace today and hope for each tomorrow.

To the Wiley Family,
Galen had a gentle spiritual aura surrounding her. Her music was simple soothing to the soul and her singing would just bless and lift up your bowed down head. Now, she has joined the angelic choir and her voice is ringing in the air. God bless you in this hour and know we are praying with you.

To the Wiley Family,
Your lost is our lost. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Another angel has made it home. Praise God! She played music here on earth and she's still playing. So I say to her as I did many times while she was playing and the choir was singing "Play Galen". She liked the song What God has For It Is For Me and she has now gotten her reward. Fly on Ms. Wiley fly on. I love you.

Dear Wiley Family, I am so sorry about your loved one, my music teacher and friend. She had a quiet spirit, and was always so encouraging in her teaching. She was also a great musician. I will miss her. May the Lord Bless and keep you is my prayer.

Wiley, Tristy and Adriane,
Your combined families have had and will always have a special place in our hearts . The history of the Brinkley, Wiley and Malone families trace back through church, school and community and we know that this is a very difficult time for the 3 of you. We want you to know that we will also miss just calling Galyn's name and knowing that she is not physically there. She had such a sweet way about herself and that soft and distinguished voice will only be stilled for a moment for we all know that she has gone to await the arrival of those who loved her here. Our prayers and deepest thoughts are with you for she is only a prayer away.
God Bless!

God Bless You Family, Sister Wiley was truly a Blessing to me. I am honored to have been able to set under her teaching in our Sunday School Class. She was very careful to stay in the Word and at the same time relate it to today. Thank God there is no more pain, no more crying nothing but singing and joy. May God continue keeping you all in this time of sadness but also hope. Jesus is the answer.

A Psalm of Thanksgiving
Make a joyful shout to the LORD, all you lands!
Serve the LORD with gladness;
Come before His presence with singing.
Know that the LORD, He is God;
It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
For the LORD is good;
His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.
Psalm 100 1st-5th Versus
Mr. Thomas, Tristy and Adriane.
On many Sunday Morning, Evelyn & I ( Billy Lampkin ) and Mrs. Wiley all would share the same Pew. I do hope that the faith that has guided you in so many difficult times will strengthen you as you mourn the loss of your wife & mother. She was a good woman and a servant of God in all that she did. Thank you for allowing our Sons the privilege of having your wife ( Mrs. Wiley )to teach them Piano Lessons in your home.
Our faith teaches us that those that mourn are blessed. I know that is true and that you will receive the special blessings that you so richly deserve.
Please know that the Lampkin Family will be praying for you, daughters and grand childrens that you will all find the peace and comfort in this time of bereavement. I know that God will answer your prayers.
May you be guided by your faith.
In Friendship & Faith,
Billy, Evelyn, William & James Lampkin

Mrs Wiley you will be greatly missed by my family. You were one of the most inspirational ladies that I know and I always enjoyed talking and visiting with you. When I was feeling down or upset I would come to my piano lessons and you would always brighten my day! I know that you are in a better place now and not suffering anymore. You are with our Father in Heaven and I know you are happy there. God Bless your family and be with them in their time of sorrow.
