Caroline M. Gallagher, of Chalfont, PA died suddenly on Saturday, November 12, 2011, at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia surrounded by her family. She was 15.
Born in Meadowbrook, PA she was the daughter of Kevin P. and Jean Prendergast Gallagher of Chalfont and sister of the late Michael Gallagher.
Caroline was currently in 10th grade at Central Bucks South High School having previously attended Saint Jude School and Unami Middle School, where she was the recipient of the Spanish Award in 9th grade. School was important to Caroline and she worked very hard for her grades. Her desire to achieve a 4.0 was evident and was finally obtained in her first quarter of 10th grade receiving a 4.025.
Academics were only one facet of Caroline. She was multi-talented and enjoyed many activities outside of school. From playing sports with her friends on the St. Jude CYO volleyball and St. Jude, Archdiocesan Championship Softball team in 2009 to her love of singing. She was heard over many years of participation in plays at St. Jude and Unami, Select Chorus at Unami, Teen Choir at St. Jude, and Chorus at Central Bucks South. Her singing exposure also advanced her onto the acting arena as a member of the Thespian Club at CB South. She was active in community service as a member of the Key Club at CB South, Camp Heart, Special Olympics, and volunteering as a Cheer Coach for the Warrington Warriors.
Caroline loved the beach, dogs, baking, and had a personality that drew you to her. She was a wonderful daughter, sister and friend who will long be remembered for her beautiful, wide smile that she shared with everyone.
In addition to her parents, Caroline is survived by her brothers, James P. and John J. Gallagher both of Chalfont, her maternal grandparents John and Margaret O’Kane Prendergast of Philadelphia, and paternal grandmother Delia O’Connor Gallagher of Philadelphia. She is also survived by many Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. She was predeceased by her paternal grandfather James P. Gallagher.
