Marian (Walls) Gale

The Walls family, the Williams family, and the Suralis family grew up together, went to school together, played together, and worked together, many of them establishing businesses in Riverview and the surrounding areas. This generation had strong work ethics and believed that "my word is my bond", with strong Christian beliefs. Families were close, and fish frys (caught in the Alafia and Tampa Bay) with grits and homemade biscuits or hushpuppies nourished body and soul. Card games, fishing, and much laughter bonded this group for a lifetime. I am fortunate to have shared my life with many of them. We will miss you, Pete. Condolences and prayers to the family.
