Obituary for West Columbia’s Garrett Galloway

Garrett Allen Galloway, Sr.

Garrett Allen Galloway, Sr, 43, of West Columbia, loving husband of Robyn Skipper Galloway, has gone home to be with our heavenly Father.  He passed away suddenly at his home early Sunday, May 20, 2018.  Born in Hartsville, SC, he was the son of Mrs. Robin Joy Johnson and the late Derrick “Ricky” Allen Galloway.

In addition to his wife and mother, he is survived by his three children, Garrett “Rhett” Allen Galloway, Jr, Derrick “Alex” Alexander Galloway, and Mary Kate Galloway and a sister, Jennifer (Adam) Garrison.

Garrett was Director of Strategic Development at Med Emporium.  He was previously employed by Sleep Med Inc., Special Care Medical, Portsbridge Hospice and Lexington Medical Center.  Garrett was a Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT) and Respiratory Care Practitioner (RCP).  He was one of the founding members of Carolina Sleep Society (CSS) and was a member of the SCLLR Board.  Garrett served on School Improvement Councils for Northside Middle School and Brooklyn-Cayce High School.  He was on the Bond Referendum Task Force for Lexington School District 2 and served on countless other community boards.  Garrett loved his community and his church.  In years past he served in various capacities at The Harvest in Lexington, SC, including being head usher for several years.  Garrett loved dirt track racing, hunting, fishing, camping, bourbon, riding his GS motorcycle, Gamecock football, country music and traveling with family and friends.  Another one of Garrett’s great passions was Pineview Dixie Youth Baseball, where he served for 10 years in many roles from coach to becoming president of the league.

Anyone that knew him would know that Garrett’s greatest loves were his Lord, his wife, his three precious children, his family and, without a doubt, his friends and his NBFFs.  He had a smile that was contagious, and his integrity was like none other.  Garrett will be greatly missed by many.

Visitation will be held at the Barr-Price Funeral Home in Lexington, SC on Wednesday evening, May 23, 2018 from 6-8 pm.  The Celebration of Garrett’s Life will be held Thursday, May 24, 2018 at 11:00 am at The Harvest in Lexington, SC and the burial will follow at Beulah UMC in Sandy Run at 1577 Old State Road, Gaston, SC 29053.
