Beth Ann Vande Stouwe

Mrs. Beth Ann Vande Stouwe, 46, passed away on July 30, 2026. Born on June 8, 1980, Beth’s life was marked by steadfast devotion to those she loved and a quiet strength that carried through every season of her years. She resided in Houston, Texas.

Beth grew up in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where her early promise and determination were evident. She attended high school at the Louisiana School for Math, Science and the Arts, and later continued her education at Tulane University, graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Economics and Finance—an achievement that reflected both discipline and a thoughtful, capable mind.

In her professional life, Beth worked as an Energy Trading Analyst, bringing care and diligence to her work and earning respect through her steady presence and reliability.

On March 23, 2013, Beth married Gerry Galang in Houston. Above all else, she was best known for being the most devoted mother to her daughter, Christine Cole—a role she embraced with unwavering love, constant attention, and a deep sense of purpose.

Beth found joy and meaning in the beauty of everyday life. She loved the beach, reading, going to museums, dancing, and art, and her appreciation for color and expression was reflected in her favorite color, purple. She also cherished her Cockapoo, Piper, who brought comfort and companionship to her days.

Beth is survived by her husband, Gerry Galang; her daughter, Christine Cole; her mother, Donna Vande Stouwe; her father, Stephen Vande Stouwe; and her sister, Laura Richard and her family.

Beth will be remembered with enduring respect and deep affection, and her absence will be felt profoundly by all who knew and loved her.
