Louise Galloway

Louise Reece Galloway resided for 30 years in Star Harbor Texas before her unexected passing recently. She moved here from San Angelo Texas and Bartlesville Oklahoma with her husband Harlan and they joined the First Baptist Church in Malakoff Texas, and participated in many many activites Cedar Creek Lake offers. She is preceded in death by all her siblings, in-laws and many many friends. Louise is the last of the Ira J. and Irma Reece generation of Altus Oklahoma. She will be missed by her children; Craig, David, Scott and Lou Ann. Her daughter in-laws Sue and Toni. Her Grand Children; Jason, Christopher and Whitney and their spouses Angie and Stephanie along with her extended family grand children Stefanie and Jennifer who she loved all unconditionally. Louise has a tribe of great grand children: Preston , Caylee, Mason, Morgan, Tatum, Logan and Emmy plus the 7 -" J's" and 3 Fites.

Educated and married in Altus Oklahoma Louise was born at a time of incredible difficulties, at a period in time when making gut-wrenching choices were frequent. For her husband to be gone during WWII must have been unbearable. But she learned through the struggles, she did not argue nor did she allow others to argue around her. Louise and Harlan reared 3 sons and a daughter during the turmoil of the 50's and 60's, and because of her unwavering graciousness she made it look easy. Always confident in her abilities, always demonstrating impeccable fashion and timing and more importantly she could separate issues and know what was really important.

Louse is the very definition of "lady" . Donna Reed could take a lesson. June Cleaver couldn't compare and she had the resources of a Hollywood Studio.

Not known for drama her struggles she worked out privately, including her death.

I never heard her raise her voice, not even once. A class act in every way. A terrific example for other women and girls who knew her and a mystery to the men and boys who knew her.

June 9, 1930 - May 30, 2023 She is with Daddy now.
