My deepest sympathy to Wally and his family. I just found out today 6/15/09, you made your transition and am sorry I wasn't there to pay my last respects to you and your family.
I didn't see Wally very often, however, when I did, it was like we never missed a beat.
I trust Wally is in good hands now and will rest in peace.
Sincerely, Sue Gubala

Gubala! and Tamborrino! friends forever

Gubala my dear friend with the most awesome last name...how many great memories I have. You always made me smile & laugh. I will miss our fun casino times...I will miss our dart games...I will miss our phone calls...I will miss the beeps as you passed by my house...I will miss your smile & laugh...but most of all, I will miss you. I will never know such a wonderful friend like you. You will always be in my heart...& you always be my "Gubala!".
Rest in peace.
To Wally's family & friends...
