Galen was a first cousin to me. My wife and I visited he and Mary many times at their homes in Ft. Wayne and Florida. Galen had vast knowledge of Rankin genealogy and could tell many interesting stories of the family. I will miss our conversations. Thoughts and prayers go out to Mary and the family.

Galen is my uncle, he loved to tell me about when my parents brought me home from the hospital. Mom & Dad were temporarily living with Mary & Galen, before moving to Fort Wayne. There wasnt a crib available, so I slept in a dresser drawer. He assured me I fit perfectly. I loved to hear that story as much as he enjoyed telling it. Rest in Peace Galen.
