He was born Aug. 5, 1930, in Phippsburg to Niles L. and Dora V. Wallace. He attended West Point School in Phippsburg.

In 1957, Wallace married Beverly L. Beal in Bowdoin.

He worked for a time as a clammer and commercial fisherman, and later as a textile worker for Worumbo Textile Mill and at Keena Corp. in Brunswick. He retired in 1996.

Wallace and his wife lived in Lisbon Falls until 2011, when they moved to Brunswick.
