Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Robert Galloway was my maternal grandfather. My mother always kept his picture on her dresser. From time to time as I grew up she would recount, without anger and without bitterness, what had happened to my grandfather. As his oldest child, my mother of necessity took a major role in helping the family cope, having to quit high school and go to work to help her mother support her brothers and sisters.
Despite what she had to go through, I credit her with providing a loving family environment for me. She always spoke highly of my grandfather, and I believe that is a testament to his character.
My thanks to the County of Allegheny and City of Pittsburgh for the memorial to fallen officers.
Though today it has been one hundred years since his passing, I know my grandfather’s name will never be forgotten.

This man was my great grandfather. His son, John Robert Galloway was my Grandfather. John Robert Galloway was only 13 when his father was killed. He quit school and went to work to help his mother and 7 siblings. John passed at age 80 in 1991. I never knew the actual circumstances surrounding his death until I found this site quite recently. His children, Grandchildren and Great grand children have done well. Rest in Peace.
