Bruce Vincent Galloway
Mr. Bruce Vincent Galloway, 94, passed away on July 21, 2019.
He was a proud resident of Plant City for 60 years. The only son of Vincent and Iva Harmelink Galloway, he was born in Dewittville, New York on March 14, 1925.
He is pre-deceased by his wife of 64 years, Miriam MacFarland Galloway and his sons, Rodney Bruce Galloway and David Hugh Galloway.
He is survived by his daughter, Virginia Galloway McLeod, his sister, Naomi Bloomstran, his daughters-in-law, Barbara Hart Galloway and Lisa Gideon Galloway. Six grandchildren: Tara Galloway Lueck, Sarah Galloway Schibler, Robert James Galloway (Candace), Ian Stewart McLeod, Grant Cameron McLeod (Fae) and James Vincent Galloway. Two nieces and eight great-grandchildren.
The family he leaves behind and those he joins in Heaven are a testament to what a loving man he was. A member of the greatest generation, Mr. Galloway was a veteran of World War II, serving in the European Theater of Operations. After returning from the war, he attended the University of Florida and graduated with a degree in Industrial Engineering. After graduation, he started his career with the Celanese Corporation in Rome, Georgia.
In 1959, he moved his family to Plant City for a job with Coronet Industries, where he spent the balance of his career in the phosphate and mining industry. He spent the next 60 years dedicating his time to his family, community and church. He loved to golf and fish, especially with his sons and was a member of several organizations dedicated to giving back.
He was a member of the Kiwanis and the First Presbyterian Church and was always ready to lend a hand. But perhaps his proudest achievement was serving as a Director of the Florida Strawberry Festival. You could find him on his scooter every year, traveling the grounds and surveying all the booths, rides and visitors with a smile.
He was a kind, gentle man who always had a strong handshake and some warmth to share.
His impact on the community was subtle but far reaching. He wasn’t one to garner attention for his deeds, the fact that they were done with love and care was enough. What better tribute than to say “he will be missed”.
There will be a memorial Saturday, Aug. 3 at 11 a.m. at First Presbyterian Church in Plant City located at 404 W. Reynolds St.
