Jeffrey Lynn Gallup, 70

Jeffrey Lynn Gallup was born Oct. 6, 1952, in Van Nuys, Calif., to Bedent Bernard Gallup and Lorraine Lynn Gallup. After a full life of love and kindness, Jeff left us to be with The Lord on July 20, 2023, at the age of 70. Jeff's love lives on through his wife, Barbara Gallup, daughters Brandi (Bryan) Turner and Erica (Dustin) Miller, stepson Bob Smotherman, granddaughter Penelope "PJ" Miller, stepgrandsons Tyler (Rachel) Smotherman, Cody (Jordyn) Smotherman, Hayden (Stephanie) Smotherman, and Jesse Smotherman and three great-grandchildren, as well as so many others who knew and loved him over his lifetime.

Jeff may have been a simple man, but he was larger than life. He gave off the persona of a big, tough guy, which he was when the time was right, but he had a huge heart. Jeff was an earthly and spiritual man who based his life and raised his family with the core belief that you "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." His happiest moments were in the times he was with his family, in nature or sharing in an intellectual conversation.

Services for family and close friends will be held Aug. 6, 2023. For anyone interested in attending, please contact English Funeral Chapel at 208-664-3143. In lieu of flowers, the family has asked for donations to be made to stvincentdepaulnorthidaho.org in his name.
