Harry Galvan

March 7, 1957 — April 16, 2025

Lorain

Harry B. Galvan Jr., age 68, of Lorain, passed away peacefully at home on Wednesday, April 16, 2025.

Harry retired from the Ford Assembly Plant in Avon. He cherished every moment spent with his daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren, finding joy in their company. Harry also found pleasure in watching Westerns and savoring a cold beer. His love for his family was as strong as his passion for his Mustang cars, with his 1969 Mustang being his most beloved possession.

Harry is survived by his daughter, Melissa (Chad) Buchanan; his son, Elbert Galvan; six grandchildren; his brother, Bobby (Cathy) Galvan; his sister, Angela Frye; and several nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.

He was preceded in death by his father, Harry Galvan Sr.; mother, Anna Katherine (nee Standford) Galvan; his sisters, Barbara Galvan, Bernice Galvan, Katherine Cavallo, and Faith Kuhn; his brother, Johnny Joe Galvan; and his uncle Butch.
