CHARLES GALEA, 78, passed away peacefully on April 25 at home.

Husband of Antoinette, née Anastasi, father of Karelle and her husband Brian Vella, and Charles Jr and his wife Sharon.

Proud grandfather to Dean, Kyle, Mikael and Alexander.

Charles loved flowers but he would surely prefer donations to Hospice who were so very helpful during his illness.

Funeral mass will be said on Monday, April 28, at 9am, at the Sacro Cuor parish church, Sliema, followed by burial at Żejtun cemetery.
