Robert P. Inlow, M.D

Our beloved husband, father and grandfather, Robert P. Inlow, M.D., passed away on February 16, 2021.

 

Bob was born in Shelbyville, IN in 1930 to Norma and Dr. William DePrez Inlow. He was a proud graduate of Indiana University where he obtained his bachelor’s degree in 1951 and his medical degree in 1956.

 

IU is also where he met his wife of 70 years, Roberta Graber Inlow.

 

Bob completed his medical internship at the Ohio State University and his residency in surgery at the Mayo Clinic.

 

Bob was also immensely proud of his service as a Captain in the United States Army.

 

 

One of Bob’s proud professional achievements was his work at the Inlow Clinic which provided medical services to the greater Shelbyville community for 68 years. The clinic was started in Shelbyville by his father, Dr. William DePrez Inlow, and uncles Herb and Fred in 1923. Bob joined the clinic in 1963, served as President and put his heart into the organization until it closed its doors in 1991. Over the years the clinic employed 40 different doctors and served countless patients in Shelby County.

 

Bob was also proud to continue the tradition of the Mayo Clinic Priestly Society which bestowed the “Inlow Award” annually for top surgical research by a fellow in the surgical training program. Even after his retirement he continued his medical pursuits in the Medical Reserve Corps and CERT in Redondo Beach, California.

 

Another proud professional achievement was his service with the American College of Surgeons (ACS). He served on the Board of Directors of the Indiana Chapter ACS, and was President of the Indiana Chapter of ACS 1994-1995. He was elected to the national Board of Governors in 1995 and served as Governor at Large for Indiana from 1995-2001.

 

However, Bob’s proudest achievement was his family. He is survived by his wife, Roberta, their three children, Barbara Inlow-Childress (Kenneth), Dan Inlow (Laura), and Diana (Dee Dee) Inlow Pare (Thomas), as well as seven grandchildren, Amanda, Andrea and Christopher Childress, Kevin and Connor Inlow, and Claire and Thomas Pare, Jr. He was preceded in death by his brothers, William D. Inlow, Jr. and James N. Inlow.

 

Bob loved to travel and was an avid genealogist. He was outgoing, gregarious, and loved a good laugh. He especially loved Thanksgiving when he, ever the surgeon, always carved the Thanksgiving turkey perfectly and was surrounded by his kids and grandkids. His favorite pursuits after retiring were watching his grandchildren’s school and sporting events and watching his beloved Hoosiers. Bob touched many lives personally and professionally and will be forever in our hearts.

Due to COVID, only a family memorial will be scheduled at this time.

 

Services have been entrusted to Freeman Family Funeral Homes and Crematory, 819 S. Harrison St. in Shelbyville.

Rev. John Peter Gallagher, a native of Shelbyville

Rev. John Peter Gallagher, a native of Shelbyville, passed to eternal life on February 6 in the rectory of Our Lady of the Springs Parish in French Lick, Ind., where he had served as pastor since 2018.

 

The Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 11 a.m. on February 22 at St. Joseph Church, 125 E. Broadway, in Shelbyville. Burial will follow at St. Joseph Cemetery in Shelbyville. 

 

Visitation will take place from 4-8 p.m. on Feb. 21 and from 9-11 a.m. on Feb. 22 at St. Joseph Church. On February 21, the reception of the body will take place at 4 p.m. and a vigil service will be prayed at 7 p.m.   Masks and social distancing will be required for the visitation and Mass of Christian Burial.

 

Father Peter was born on January 23, 1961 in Shelbyville to the late David and Elizabeth (Moore) Gallagher. He and his family later lived for periods in Iowa, Minnesota and South Dakota before returning to Shelbyville. Father Peter graduated from Shelbyville High School in 1979.

 

From his time as a child, he had felt a call to serve God and the Catholic Church in which he was raised as a priest. So, after high school, he became a seminarian for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis and received formation at the former Saint Meinrad College in St. Meinrad, Ind., graduating from there in 1983.

 

At that time, Father Peter discerned a possible call to be a Benedictine monk at Saint Meinrad Archabbey in St. Meinrad. He entered the novitiate there in 1983 and professed vows for a three-year period in 1984. After living out those vows, Father Peter left the archabbey and moved to California.

 

For two years, he taught a diverse student body at the former Daniel Murphy High School, an all-boys Catholic school in the poverty-stricken south-central neighborhood of Los Angeles.

 

During that time, Father Peter felt God’s call to the priesthood again and became a seminarian for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, earning a master of divinity degree at St. John Seminary in Camarillo, Calif. In the final year of his formation, however, he became a seminarian again for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis and was ordained a priest on June 6, 1992 in SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Indianapolis.

 

In his 28 years of priestly life and ministry in central and southern Indiana, Father Peter served in a wide variety of settings: from urban high schools and parishes, to faith communities in suburbs, small towns and rural areas.

 

For several years, Father Peter was also the chaplain for the Indianapolis Colts National Football League team, including when it won the Super Bowl in 2007.

 

In his last two years of ministry, Father Peter served as pastor of Our Lady of the Springs Parish in French Lick and Our Lord Jesus Christ the King Parish in Paoli, Ind.

 

He died doing what he had felt God had called him to do from an early age: serving his people, leading them in worship and service and helping them grow in faith.

Billie Jean (Castleman) Young

Billie Jean (Castleman) Young was born on August 31, 1928, in Marshall, Arkansas, to the late Vada Ella and Albert Buren Castleman.

 

Billie attended school in Bowlegs, Oklahoma, before meeting recently discharged U.S. Marine Fines Young at a local hamburger stand in Marshall that Billie and a cousin owned. Fines and Billie married in 1946, when Billie was seventeen years old. Unbeknown to the young couple, this union would last the next 70 years.

 

Fines and Billie continued to live in the south before moving to Shelby County, Indiana around 1954, where Billie was a dedicated homemaker to daughters Randy Beth and Rebecca “Beckie” Jean.

 

While Fines served as a journeyman in the Sheet Metal Workers Local #20, he and Billie developed the Buck Creek Shades and Woodnotes subdivisions in Fairland, and built several of the homes themselves. Fines and Billie raised Simmental cattle and helped their young grandchildren with many 4H projects.

 

In the early 1990’s after Fines had retired from the union, he and Billie moved back to Seminole, Oklahoma, where the two remodeled homes, gardened, fished, and traveled – oftentimes to Albuquerque, New Mexico, to visit family, and back to Indiana, to see grandchildren Carie, Corey, Jessica, and Matthew. As a young boy, Matthew dubbed Fines as “Pa” and Billie as “Granny,” names affectionately used to this day. Billie deeply loved and was extremely proud of her grandchildren.

Fines and Billie moved back to Shelby County around 2007, and spent their remaining days surrounded by family. After Fines’ passing in 2017, Billie remained at home, cared for by Randy, Beckie, and a team of loving, dedicated caretakers.

 

Billie enjoyed watching the birds, ducks, and geese from her dining room window, along with two squirrels she affectionately named “Mozo” and “Bozo.” Caretaker Cathy would often play the accordion or keyboard so that Billie could sing a Christian song or two. Billie’s last days and passing were quiet and peaceful. Billie is survived by daughters Randy Stein and Rebecca Matney, grandchildren Carie (Randy) Crafton, Corey (Jodi) Stein, Jessica (Shane) Griggs, and Matthew Matney, and great-grandchildren Laila and Ava Stein, and Ella and Eli Griggs. Welcoming her in heaven during the early morning hours of February 8, 2021, were husband Fines, daughter Michael Jane, mother and father Vada and Albert Buren Castleman, and sister Betty.

 

Fines and Billie were long-time members of Calvary Tabernacle in Indianapolis, placing faith as forefront in life. Billie’s faith in Jesus was strong and unshaken to the end.

 

In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Calvary Tabernacle Church, 902 Fletcher Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46203.
