WHEREAS, Family and friends were deeply saddened by the
passing of William Kevin Gallagher of Mabank on March 22, 2023,
at the age of 70; and
WHEREAS, The son of Dr. William Gallagher and Gerry
Kuskey, Bill Gallagher was born in Portland, Oregon, on September
4, 1952, and he grew up with the companionship of three siblings,
Debbie, Kerry, and David; answering his nation's call to duty, he
proudly served in the United States Air Force and was stationed
in Germany, and he was also a member of the Air National Guard in
Oregon; and
WHEREAS, Following his honorable discharge from the
military, Mr. Gallagher began working as a regional manager for
Chesebrough-Ponds; he went on to work in sales for Western Paper,

dedication to meeting the needs of the company's customers was
widely appreciated, and his strong work ethic set a positive
example for his staff; and
WHEREAS, Mr. Gallagher and his wife, Patty, married on
July 4, 2005, and they shared a fulfilling relationship that
spanned more than 17 years; he took great pride in his son,
Richard Kevin Gallagher, who preceded him in death, and in his
two stepsons, Trinidad and Valentino; in his leisure time, he
enjoyed playing golf, grilling, watching NASCAR, and operating
remote control planes; he drew strength from his Christian faith
and was a member of the congregation at Sand Springs Church; and
WHEREAS, Although Bill Gallagher is deeply missed,
memories of his integrity, his sense of humor, and his devotion
to his family remain to comfort and inspire those he leaves
behind; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th
Legislature, hereby pay tribute to the memory of William Kevin
Gallagher and extend sincere condolences to his loved ones;
and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be
