Galen and Mary lived a life of love and adventure together celebrating their 50th anniversary last year.
They were often seen enjoying driving around in one of their many unique cars. Most likely coming or
going to Braum’s.
Mr. Tiffany performed many occupations in his life including being self-employed. He owned and
operated Tiffany Enterprises, Port-o-Call Travel, Tiffany Motorsports as well flying parts overnight
throughout the country, concluding his career at American Airlines. He volunteered many selfless hours
for the Akdar Shrine Temple, Catoosa Public Schools, coaching baseball. Serving as Chaplin for the Adkar

Sertoma District Volunteer of the year in 2008.
Galen had many hobbies including camping, fishing, attending his children’s and grandchildren’s events.
He was most at home under the hood of a vehicle with his dad, brothers, grandkids and friends. It was
during these times his heart was truly full. He taught us to persevere when things didn’t go per plan,
always guided by his faith, and that a job well done would be rewarded either by having reliable
transportation or a victory at the track. It was not uncommon for conversations to go beyond the task at
hand to his relationship with his Lord and Savior. He would lead by example and enter into a
conversation about God’s greatness.
