Dorothy Jayne Galloway

April 15, 1944 – July 6, 2013

Dorothy Jayne Galloway, 69, of Owens Crossroads, AL, died Saturday morning.  Her final days were spent surrounded by family and friends that Jayne had touched throughout her memorable life. 

She was born to the late Clifton Odell and Mattybelle Mann, April 15, 1944 in Huntsville, AL. Jayne graduated from New Hope High School in 1962. She was married to the late Billy Charles Galloway in 1961, and they lived together in Owens Crossroads, AL until his death in 2012. 

Jayne was passionate about her family and believed in living life to its fullest. Known as Lulu to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, she gave each person she encountered the dignity of her undivided attention and respect. She lived her life by the golden rule of “compassion for all” and worked everyday of her life to uphold it.  Through the tenure of her life, every person she met was deeply blessed to have known her.  Her smile alone could light up a room and her hugs were filled with love and conviction.

Jayne was an active member of Owens Crossroads Church of Christ.  She loved to travel, and took many trips with her husband, children, and grandchildren in her lifetime.

Jayne is survived by four children: Jan Parker of Hampton Cove, AL, Robert Galloway of Owens Crossroads, AL, Aaron Galloway of New Hope, AL, and Austin Galloway of Fyffe, AL. She also is survived by eight grandchildren; Lauren Parker Lovell, Anna Parker, Tyler Parker, Emily Galloway, Samantha Galloway, Ansley Galloway, Clara Ashleigh Toole, and Wyatt Galloway, and one great-grandson; Jon Greer Lovell.

A viewing will be held Sunday, 7 July 2013, from 4-8pm at New Hope Funeral Home.  Funeral Services will be held Monday, 8 July 2013, at 11am at Owens Crossroads Church of Christ. The family will also receive friends at the church one hour prior to the service.

Interment will be in the Moon Cemetery.

  4. Jayne was a precious Angel on earth and I know she is at the right hand of the Father! My prayers are with her family and Dr. Pullen’s office. We were all Blessed for having Jayne be a part of our life.

  5. Jayne inspired me for thirty years as I often talked with her at Dr. Mark Pullen’s office. Her presence was all around me this week as I stood outside her office door and felt the somberness and void in her fellow staff. I missed her usual hug. Family, please know that God’s is surrounding her now. My deepest sympathy to Jayne’s family and Dr. Pullen and staff.
