Honor Don Gallogly: Memorial Bench Fund

Thank you for taking the time to visit this site to honor Don Gallogly. We have created this page to provide an opportunity for those who want to contribute to Don's Memorial to do so.

Don was an incredibly kind and giving man who was deeply loved by his family, friends, and community. He loved anything involving nature and the outdoors and spent a large amount of his time running, as well as paddleboarding, cycling, hiking, and camping across Oregon and beyond. We would like to create a place for people who knew and loved Don to come and remember him or feel close to him at a location Don loved and spent time at.

The premature and sudden loss of Don is something those who loved him will feel for the rest of their lives. Don's presence will be forever felt in the places he loved to go, the movies he loved to watch over and over, and the songs he loved to blast in his car. He was a singular and unique person who will never be forgotten by those he affected and loved.

Keep sharing your stories of Don with those around you. He was an incredible storyteller and could always make anyone laugh and would love to know his stories are being told.

All donations will be used to create memorial benches in places Don loved. Any excess money gathered will be donated to the Oregon Parks.

Tentative locations:

Location 1: Bush’s Pasture Park, Salem, Oregon

Location 2: Riverfront City Park, Salem, Oregon
