An angel he has become. Galen was a jokester and full of life. He use to be so big he would scare the stuffing out of me. His eyes would glitter with murth and he was loved by all. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you Rachel and your family. RIP big guy.

Our whole family offers our deepest sympathy, and prays that God will bless each of you for your loss of Galen. I have many fond memories of him; hunting, our lunches between hunting and all those stories. He was so quick on his feet and loved to joke. I'll share my first memory of Uncle Galen when I was three, staying at Grandma Chase's farm house, when my sister, Wendy was born. I walked in on him kissing Rachel and he told me, I had better run and so I did. I share that because of his obvious love and devotion to Rachel and his family.

Dearest Rachel and Family, Words are inadequate to express our deepest sympathies and sadness of Galen's passing. Lean on each other for support to get through the difficult days, weeks, and months ahead.
Our hearts are heavy and we will miss him very much, but are glad that he is no longer suffering but resting in peace, and doing what he does best, cracking jokes and having a wonderful reunion with family and friends in Heaven. God Bless you all.

Uncle Galen - As you watch over Aunt Rachel, your children and grandchildren, I know you know how much they loved you. May you also know that many are thinking of you. Remembering your jokes, your hearty laughter, that half smile half frown that said you weren’t very happy at that moment but you weren’t going to say any more about it, at least not right then, and most of all being thankful that you were always you and that you were a part of their lives.

Galen was the first person I had met in Medusa, and by far the nicest man I have known. His kindness and his humor were something that my wife and myself had always found to be refreshing. I know that we will all miss Galen very much and I will miss seeing him ride by on both his horse and his tractor.

You always knew where you stood with Galen. He was a no bones about it person and I loved to hear his stories. Our families visited each other often when the kids were growing up. He was always grateful for what people did for him. I thank him for all his help after the death of Jon. I miss his great eggs and infectious laugh. May God watch over Rachael, Pennie, Bruce, Hope and Jackie as well as all their families. We all miss you and Jennie misses you more. Peace to my other brother.
