In Loving Memory of Diana Marie Galloway (March 14, 1949 - June 3, 2026)
It is with deep sadness and profound gratitude for a life so beautifully lived that we announce the passing of a beloved soul who touched the hearts of so many. Diana Marie Galloway, age 77, passed away peacefully on June 3, 2026, surrounded by loved ones.
Born in San Francisco on March 14, 1949, Diana lived a life rooted in resilience, love and deep connection. She met the love of her life, Ken, in the eighth grade-a bond that would grow into a lifelong partnership. They married the day after Diana graduated from high school, beginning their journey together before Ken was deployed to Vietnam in 1967. They moved to Morgan Hill in 1976, where Ken built the home they would share and where they built a life centered on family, friendship and community.
Diana had a remarkable way of brightening every room she entered. Friends and family will forever cherish the laughter she inspired, the gatherings she made unforgettable and the stories that somehow grew richer with each telling. She also carried a spirited, feisty side-one that those closest to her knew well and loved deeply. Diana spoke her mind, stood her ground and moved through life with a determined strength that earned both admiration and respect. That spark was simply part of what made her so unforgettable.
A devoted mother to her two sons, Diana poured her heart into her family. Among her greatest joys were her four grandsons, whom she adored beyond measure and held close with immense pride. Her eyes would light up at the mention of them and nothing brought her more happiness than watching them grow and thrive.
She is survived by her husband of 59 years, Kenneth Galloway; her two sons, Kenneth Galloway Jr. (Kim) and Adam Galloway (Miranda); and her four grandsons, Kyle, Kevin, Cade and Blake.
Though she is no longer with us in body, her spirit lives on in the stories we share, the lessons she taught and our attempts to recreate the meals she prepared with love rather than recipes. She will be deeply missed, forever remembered, and always cherished.
To honor her, a Celebration of Life will be held at 12:30 pm on July 11, 2026, at Mama Mia's restaurant in Morgan Hill.
