Bernard Gallagher
October 4th 1935 - June 24th 2018

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend, Bernard Gallagher, on June 24th, 2018. Born October 4th, 1935 to James and Bridget Gallagher in Liverpool England, Bernard was the fourth oldest in a family of eight children. He immigrated to Canada in 1957 where he soon became one of the founding partners of Gallagher Bros. Contractors Ltd along with his brothers Peter, James and John.

Bernard was the loving husband and only love of 57 years to Terry. Together they had three children; Michael [Demita], Kevin [Tanja], Cheryl [Bernie]. Bernard also leaves behind 6 grandchildren; Sean, Justin, Aidan, Liam, Kayley, Nolan and Bernard's surviving brother John, sisters Kathleen and Maureen. Bernard is predeceased by his parents, James Sr. and Bridget, brothers Danny, Peter and James.

One of Bernard's greatest passions was Horseracing [racing and breeding], and he will be dearly missed by his lifelong friends at the Hastings Park Race course where he could be found cheering on his horses. Bernard also enjoyed the many trips Terry and he made to their condo in Palm Springs over the last 30 years and the wonderful friends that they made there.

Please join us in celebrating Bernard's long and wonderful life. Service will be at All Saints Parish [821 Fairfax St, Coquitlam) on July the 5th at 11:00 am followed by a Celebration of Life at the Vancouver Golf Club 771 Austin Avenue, Coquitlam thereafter noon. For all that knew him, we can attest to say "they broke the mold after Bernie was born".

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to either the SPCA or B.C Children's Hospital in Bernard's name.
