Ryan P. Gallagher, 34, passed away on December 22, 2015, at his residence. Ryan was born on November 2, 1981, in Havre, to Julie Gallagher and Kim Sutton.

When he was young, the family moved to Hawaii, where he was raised until 1992 when the family relocated to Libby. Ryan moved to Havre in 1994 to live with his grandparents, and his family followed a year later.
