The friends of Walter William Gamberale have invited the Patriot Guard Riders to honor him for his service. It is our honor to do so.
Walter was born on March 07, 1943 and passed away May 04, 2020 in Glendora, Ca. Walter entered the United States Coast Guard on April 22, 1964 and was honorably discharged at the rank of Seaman E-2.
After his service he joined the Nassau County Sheriffs Department until he moved to California in 1973 and was hired on with the Riverside Sheriffs Department. He then was employed as a police officer with the City of Pasadena until he retired after 32 years of service.
Walt, as his friends called him, loved to travel around in his RV, loved his Harleys and especially loved his 64 Chevy Nova muscle car.
He will be greatly missed by all those that cared for him especially his dog Bogart .
