It is with sadness that I bid farewell to my eldest cousin Gloria. We were all close growing up and she and her sisters Teddi and Sylvia taught us to jitterbug when we were about twelve years old in Grandma Nelson's living room. When we entered Pitt, we were also guided by our experienced cousins in learning to negotiate the new environment. In recent years we became close email buddies sharing humor which was always her delight.
May God's everloving comfort abide with Sylvia & Greg, family and friends as we keep her close in memory until the time we share laughter once again.
