Gale was born on Jan. 8, 1943, in Kansas City, MO, to George Moore and Ida Mae (Evans) Moore. He graduated from Van Horn High School in the class of 1961. He married Carolyn Sue Hoskins, and to this union were born two sons. He was a life-long member of I.B.E.W Local #124 and retired from there after 45 years. He was also a member of the Moose Lodge, the Fraternal Order of the Eagles, and the Independence Bass Club.
