JOE GALLO 1979 - 2016 It is with deep sorrow that we announce the sudden and untimely passing of our beloved father, son, brother and uncle, Joe Gallo. Joe leaves behind his three beautiful daughters, Katarina, Talia and Gabriella, who were the loves of his life. Joe is also survived by his parents Tony and Cathy; his grandparents Giuseppe and Giuseppina Iuliano; his partner Nikki; his brother Frank; sister-in-law Francesca and his nephews, Matthew and Daniel. He will also be dearly missed by his daughters' mother, Andrea and numerous family and friends. Joe was predeceased by his paternal grandparents Frank and Antonia Gallo. Joe was known for his ability to make friends with anyone, his joyful nature and his signature, contagious laughter. Over the past eight years Joe was the owner of Idle Wheels RV Park in Gimli. The park, and the people who spent their summers there, were an integral part of Joe's life. He loved "the park" and poured his heart and soul into making it the enjoyable and special place it is today. It won't be the same without him. Joe leaves an immense hole in the lives of his family and friends. He will never be forgotten. Viewing will be held on Thursday, August 25 at 10:00 a.m. followed by funeral mass at 11:00 a.m. at Holy Rosary Church, 510 River Ave. A private family burial will follow. Pallbearers will be Tony Torchia, Joey Torchia, Peter Gallo, James Gallo, Carmelo Vinci and Ryan Knutson. Honorary pallbearers are Joe's daughters, Katarina, Talia and Gabriella and his nephews, Matthew and Daniel. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you consider donations towards the Gallo Girls' Education Fund at GoFundMe.com "Gallo Girls' Education Fund" (gofundme.com/2dw8jxdp).

I am so sorry to hear of Joe's passing. Although I am no longer in the park, I have fond memories of the years that I spent there and all the help Joe gave me to both settle in and when I moved out. His humor and laughter was infectious. The girls played with my grandchildren on many occasions and watched movies in my camper as i enjoyed having them all around. Words cannot express the sadness I feel. My sincere condolences to all Joe's family and friends. May he Rest in Peace - Posted by: Verna Hryhorchuk (past Idle Wheel resident) on: Aug 26, 2016

My condolences to Joe's family. We lost touch around grade 6, but spent a lot of time together from grades 4-5 getting in trouble and practicing our calligraphy in his parents living room... But mostly getting into trouble. It was always good to run into Joe over the years in the most random of places. Rest In Peace Joe. - Posted by: Bob (Childhood Friend) on: Aug 25, 2016

You could always count on Joe. My condolences to his family. I only wish i could be there today, but i will be in spirit. I wish his family all the best in this difficult time. He truly will be missed but never forgotten - Posted by: Stacey Clemente () on: Aug 25, 2016

Ron and I our in our 6th season at IdleWheels. When we first checked out IdleWheels, we loved the park, and Joe's friendly mannerism, pride of his park, and knowledge of rv's. IdleWheels will never be the same without Joe. Ron and I send our deepest sympathy to all of the Gallo family. There will be a huge whole without Joe in your life. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Gallo families through your grieving. May there be many angels watching over Joe' three daughters.
