Chloe Galts, beloved wife ofMarvin Galts for 53 years, passedaway February 18, 2016 at the ageof 73 surrounded by her family atChinook Regional Hospi ta l inLethbr idge. Born in Lethbridge January 5th,1943, the second eldest of eightchildren, Chloe attended her primaryschool years at Massinisin countryschool in Milk River County until1960. In her early teens she met thelove of her life Marv Galts. After highschool she attended the GarbettSecretarial School in Lethbridge andbecame the secretary to thePresident of CIBC Bank. MarryingMarvin September 22, 1962 shejoined him on his family farm inCoutts living in a farm house with no

bathroom or running water or no phone, but a ‘fabulous out-house’.Brenda was born in 1963, Bruce in 1965. Marvin and Chloe decided tochange their destiny and leave the family farm. From 1966-1970 theylived in Montana while Marvin pursued his education and Chloe started herfirst business – an in home day care – to support the family. By 1971 theyhad returned to Lethbridge, and the next year would begin the personaland professional journey that is today’s Galko Homes. She and Marvin where each other’s right hand in every aspect of life. Herdedication to him unwavering, her support unconditional, and her laughterand strength a constant source of inspiration to him. She rode therollercoaster of their life and business with dedication and celebration.Forever at his side, and he at hers. She truly put him first every day. Chloe was a leader, a pioneer and an artist. She was a self-taught homedesigner and interior decorator, developing a large following in Lethbridgeof people who came to the annual Parade of Homes every year just to see‘what Chloe does next’. Under the name of Chloe & Associates, her designcompany put Galko Homes on the map in Lethbridge winning awardsevery consecutive year she was at the helm. Chloe is acknowledged forbringing women to the forefront of leadership roles in the constructionindustry. She changed the face of the Canadian Home BuildersAssociation (CHBA) – Lethbridge by insisting education, board seats andleadership roles were open to women. In true Chloe style she called thewives of builders in Lethbridge and encouraged them to play active roles inconstruction – to get out from behind the desk and into the field. During theearly years of the company she was the Construction Supervisor – instilettos. The only woman on site. She loved overseeing the projects,negotiating with trades for pricing, ensuring that the quality of a GalkoHome was exactly as she thought it should be. She was Marvin’s partner,supporter, challenger and confident in every business they createdtogether. Together they were honoured with the CHBA Legacy Award, andwill be honoured by the University of Lethbridge Management Departmentin April of this year. Despite her busy trail blazing her children and extended family were herpriority every single day. She raised her children, and loved her nieces andnephews, with an open heart, high expectations, unwavering support. Shetaught them to take care of each other, celebrate anything, laugh everyday, and tell a fantastic story. She had a special relationship with hergrandson Mike who lived with them while attending university, and hergranddaughter Nikki who she encouraged to follow her ‘I’m-possible’dream. Nikki’s music brought her great comfort in her last hours. She wasexcited to see what her grandsons Brian and Nathan would accomplish inthe years ahead. She expected optimism and resilience no matter what,and was known to say ‘suck it up’ and ‘don’t complain’ when life got tough– as it often did for her. Everyone who knew Chloe knew her stories, andhad a story to tell about her – she made sure of it! Chloe was the epitome was grit, grace and humor– facing prolongedillnesses, personal and business aspirations and trials with determination,optimism, and unwavering faith. When her time came she knew it and she‘called it’ with as much clarity as she lived her life. When you rememberher do it with stories, a smile and smartly dressed (stilettos optional) – shewould expect it of us all.
