Gerard Gallagher RIP

In Loving Memory of Gerard Gallagher


It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gerry, a beloved caretaker of Kirkby CE Primary School who touched the lives of children, staff, and the entire school community for 13 years. Gerry passed away peacefully on 30th December, surrounded by his loved ones.


Known for his unwavering dedication, kindness, and dry sense of humour, Gerry was more than just a caretaker; he was a pillar of the school. Whether it was ensuring the classrooms were ready, fixing anything in need of repair, bathing in extremely hot custard (don’t ask!) or having his head shaved for charity Gerry certainly lit up the school.


Beyond the daily tasks, Gerry was a mentor to many children, a friend to staff, and a steadfast presence who went above and beyond to ensure the school felt like a second home to all.


Gerry will be deeply missed but forever remembered for his incredible heart, unwavering kindness, dry sense of humour and lasting impact on the lives of all he encountered.


Mary his wife, daughters Louisa and Rebecca and family will take comfort in knowing he left a legacy of smiles, laughter, and community spirit.


Rest in Peace, Gerry!
