Angie, Steve Gallus and our families
I don’t know how we are going to move on without the glue that has held our family together. Mom was the strongest person I will ever know. I know we have each other and mom taught us to be strong but this is really hard. I do find some peace knowing she is now with dad, Cheryl, Steve, Adam and Al. And so many others that have gone before her. She really hasn’t been the same since dad passed. Over 50 years married I’m sure its like losing a part of yourself. They are finally back together and I know they both have smiles on their faces now. Rest in Peace momma! I will miss you more then I can bare. You will always be in my heart. I love you so very much. Please watch over us all.
