Alma Ruth Gallagher, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away on March 20, 2024, in Fort St John, BC. She was born on June 13, 1933, in the same town where she spent most of her life, leaving an indelible mark on all who knew her.

Her family meant everything to her, and she poured her heart and soul into creating a warm and nurturing home for them.
