Galina Balakina

February 27, 1957 - September 26, 2019

Galina Balakina, age 62, of Lewes, DE, passed away on Thursday, September 26, 2019 surrounded by her family. She was born on April 27, 1957 in Andijan, Uzbekistan. Daughter of the late Alimjan and Alexandra Rakhimov. Galina was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and a friend. While in high school, she was a notable gymnast, achieving impressive results and earning many trophies at city and regional levels. After college graduation, Galina tried several different jobs in education. The most rewarding and the one she spent the most time doing, was the job of the kindergarten manager. It afforded her the opportunity to work with children as well as to share her experience with her staff. She had a special way with kids and was always able to get everyone interested and involved. She was a proud grandmother and adored her 2 grandchildren. She enjoyed every moment spent with them and other family members. Galina was an avid baker, enjoyed nature, and was able to see the unusual even in the most trivial things. She adored flowers and loved gardening. She will be dearly missed by her husband, Alexandr, sons Anton & Mikhail, daughter-in-law Anastasia, grandchildren Evan & Maria, and many other family members. The family wishes to thank all the staff at Compassionate Care Hospice for the support and care they provided to Galina during her time of need. All services will be private. Please sign Galina’s online guestbook located on this site.
