He was never critical, and though a fighter he had the heart of an altar boy. Russell A. Russ Galzke first saw the light of day on March 5, 1911 in Webb, Saskatchewan. He gained fame out of Calgary as a welterweight professional boxer winning. the Canadian Welterweight Championship. He toured Australia and box out of Vancouver for several years, The caliber of sport- sman and man he was is Revealed in messages from people that he hadn't seen him for years, who wrote his wife on reading of his passing in the Vancouver and Calgary news papers. During those younger days Russ earned the nicknames of “Trish” and the “Toy Bulldog’’. He maintained his love for the boxing game and to the time of “his death knew what was doing in the boxing world. When Ezzard Charles came to this area in 1961, he looked Russ upandspent some time with his old acquaintance. : Once Russ left active, par-’ ticipation in boxing he came north and went Into the home’ construction business. He went fo the Charlottes in 1948 and then came to Terrace in 1964. He worked for National Homes, Summit Homes and most recently with Westwood Homes developing a business that will be carried on by his son and partner. | A true picture of the gen- eness of Huss’ character is his recent move to develop a dog breeding business to which he had hoped to retire in a few - years, Only recently he had purchased some very high-bred Maltese dogs to add to the ones healready had. He, a big strong boxer, would handle these tiny animais with unbelieveable gentleness . His wife Preppa Larena “Pat” will continue’ to raise the dogs in his memory. Rarely has a man left behind him .such sincerely good memories - rarely has a man deserved to be regretted so deeply as has the late Russell A. “Russ” Gatzke ‘The Good Samaritan’. ‘May he rest in a most deserved peace. a Russ with some of his beautiful Maltese dogs.
