Timeline
Upon the death of Alan Burgess on 6 January 2021, Gallaway became the oldest living New Zealand first-class cricketer. When Gallaway died, that honour passed to Peter Arnold.
Gallaway was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire in the 1978 Queen's Birthday Honours, for services to rugby and cricket. In the 1986 Queen's Birthday Honours, he was made a Companion of the Queen's Service Order for community service, specifically for his work as chancellor of the Anglican Diocese of Dunedin over a quarter of a century. He received a Halberg Award for services to sport in 1999. Gallaway was awarded life membership of New Zealand Cricket in 2010.
In a radio commentary career that extended from 1953 to 1992, Gallaway broadcast about 500 rugby matches and numerous cricket matches, mostly from the Carisbrook ground in Dunedin. He retired after the 1992 Cricket World Cup, concerned that his declining eyesight would cause him to make incorrect calls. The final match he broadcast was New Zealand's victory over India in the round-robin stage. Gallaway's book Not a Cloud in the Sky: The Autobiography of Iain Gallaway was published five years later in 1997. He was the official patron of the Otago Cricket Association until his death.
Gallaway played three first-class cricket matches for Otago between 1946 and 1948 as a right-handed lower-order batsman and wicketkeeper. In his first match against Wellington he took six catches. He also acted as an international rugby referee, officiating a Southland match against Australia in 1949, and West Coast against the British Lions the following year.
Iain Watson Gallaway QSO MBE (26 December 1922 – 18 April 2021) was a New Zealand broadcaster, lawyer and cricketer.

Gallaway was born in Dunedin, Otago, on 26 December 1922. He attended Christ's College, Christchurch, and the University of Otago. His first job was as a cadet reporter for the Otago Daily Times.
