Memories of a Humble Life
Take a stroll with me down memory lane to the fifties and sixties.
Downtown Oswego was the place to be, and there you might meet my
Dad, police officer John Galletta. He was a police officer for 20
years.
He would walk the beat, checking locks, making sure Oswego was safe.
He would even buy shoes for a child who could not afford them; it
gave you that feeling that everything would be all right.
My Dad worked many jobs in his life in addition to Police work. He
was an ironworker, he served in the Navy, and he was a security
guard; but anyone who really knew my Dad would know that his real
love was his flower business, Galletta’s Greenhouse. He felt it was
his calling, he told me because, “flowers make people happy.” He ran
Galletta’s from the fifties to 1995. He passed away in 1996. His
last wish to me was that I would carry on his business in our family
name. I have been doing this for 12 years and running. I want to
thank my loyal old and new customers for helping me to honor my Dad
and the humble business that meant so much to him.
God Bless,
Mary A Galletta-Stevens
