My sweet sister, How I miss you. Your birthday was a sad day. Both Joanie and Debbie texted, "how I miss her" to me. Your were our light and the glue that kept us all together. The phone is still calling me to pick it up and speak to you . Oh, if only. I am so lonely without my best friend and twin.
Tho I was blessed to have you in my life for 62 years, We laughed alot. I am the picture of the pendent with only half the heart on my chain. Love amd miss you, Jeanie

MMPL,another "first" and it's just as hard as the other ones I've had to survive without you. This was the first Hanukkah in the past nine years without you. You were so missed by me as well as the kids. As you had done for the last nine years, I lit the menorah you had made. Hanukkah was so lonely for me without you. OUR cruise this year was not the same. I love and miss you so very much. YMPL

It's Christmas time and the decorations are up! You were coming here to spend Christmas with us. We are missing you Mom. The kids are missing their Gramma. But, we hung your stocking and we put notes in it when we think of you. We share memories and remember how sweet you were. Jeff said the other day how he will miss your present under the tree. Although this time of year is so hard without you....we have hope in Jesus Christ, our Savior....who's birthday we celebrate now!! We praise the Lord that you are with Christ now. Happy, dancing, no tears, no pain. We love you Mom!! Merry Merry Christmas!!!

Other then me, both Mendy and Leiba missed you the most. You were not only known as "Aunt" Gloria but you were more a grandmother to them.Each day I miss you more and more. You will always be MMPL. Love you YMPL

It’s Thanksgiving!! I love this time of year as we reflect on all of God’s goodness and all that we have because of Him!! As much as I love today, it was also a very hard day without Mom. Tina and I were talking this morning about Mom and how we miss her terribly! I was reminded of a sweet memory. About five years ago, Pete and Tina came to visit us for Thanksgiving. Mom couldn’t come to Oregon but we spoke to her on the phone. Tina and I needed her help with the turkey. So, we had her on the phone…turkey in the kitchen sink….trying to maneuver the turkey around so we could get the giblets and things from the inside (ew!). Mom was talking us through each step of the process since Tina and I had never done the whole Thanksgiving dinner without her. We were laughing so hard on the phone as we tried to get the guts out of the turkey and butter the thing without it slipping out of our hands. Tina was laughing, Mom was laughing and I was beside myself!! One of the funniest moments in time!!
I was thinking today how I wanted so desperately to talk to her! …to hear her say “Happy Thanksgiving baby girl!” Mom, I am so thankful for you! I am thankful that God gave you to me as my Mom, my cheerleader, my protector, my provider, my nurse, my friend, my kids’ Grandma Glori and my sweet listener.
“Happy Thanksgiving, Mom! We had a good day today with Jeff’s family. I ate so much I felt like I would explode!! The kids are good! They miss you though!! I love you so much Mom! I miss you too and wish we were celebrating Thanksgiving together!! I thank God for you!” If I could talk to her on the phone…this would be what I’d say…
Love,
Trev
This day was the hardest of our lives....Mom, you will always be in our hearts!

My heart is still so heavy and sad as I continue to struggle with what words to use to celebrate your life and mourn your passing. I suppose I could share stories of how you treated people like the closest of family – but I guess all that knew you knew that feeling. I suppose I could share stories of your going to great lengths to help people in need – but I guess all that knew you knew that feeling too. I suppose I could share stories of your passion for life and experiences – but I guess all that knew you knew that feeling as well. You shared as much of yourself with as much of the world as you could making it one of the most compelling and admirable qualities of your unique spirit. To know you was to love you -- but I guess all that knew you knew that feeling. I will miss you so very much. I will miss hearing, "My son, my son".
Love, Craig

Gloria, Gloria always smiling. I will have great memories of you forever. One story I tell everyone is when you wanted to purchase a house in Sacramento, Jean and I were with you and you found "the house". You ask me what to do now, and I said to make an offer and put a deposit check with it. You started crying and said "I don't have the money in my bank yet, so I might lose the house". I told you don't worry we had some money with us to cover the check. She kept crying, but from joy, and gave me a big hug. A memory I will cherish forever.
Love to all the family and Gloria.

Gloria MMPL The past 41/2 weeks have been so hard for me to accept. Every day reminds me of how much I miss you. All the plans we had for the next few months will never happen.I had no idea that when we went on our Caribbean Cruise last year that it was the last cruise we would ever take together. I am so happy that when we were together in September we had such a good time.We were able to tell each other how we felt and were looking forward to being together next month. We were going to spend Thanksgiving together as we had done for the last 10 years. We were then going on our annual Carribean cruise then spend time in Florida. I will love and miss you forever YMPL, Chuck

My sweet Sister Gloria was my Sister and Best Friend for 62 years. there are no words for how much we 3 sisters will miss her. She was the glue that held and holds us together. When she walked into a room , everyone knew
"All is well now and all will be taken care of". She was a warm and cozy blanket on a cold day or a sad day. She was our most "STUNNING" sister. She would light up faces and rooms and worlds, for so many of us. We were lucky to have been a part of her life. Her family was her life and she was our strength. Her daughters were a part of her heart and are her legacy to our world. She made a difference in the world for every person that ever touched her life because she touched theirs. We will deal with this loss, because she would want us to. Though I can't think of a more difficult task. Good Bye my dear dear sister, with all my love, Jeanie

Oh sweet Grandma Glori, what a special, special part of our family you were!! You always treated us like we were your very own and we have always been so grateful! We loved it that when your own grandkids got special sleeping bags or personalized backpacks or matching outfits, our kids got ones too! We will never forget our trip to SoCal with Jeff and Treva and staying with you!! We had a blast at the Long Beach Aquarium with you....such fun pictures we still have!! Oh Grandma Glori we will miss you so much, but truly look forward to being together in Heaven one day! We are blessed by having known you.

We are shocked , and having a hard time realizing you are gone. We loved each and every time we were together. You came into our lives some years ago, built a close and loving relationship, then you are beyond our touch. We cherish our memories, and will never forget the times we spent together. You were and are loved. Rest in peace!

Words cannot express how much you will be missed. You had such a light in your eyes and a brightness in your smile that made me happy every time I was with you. I wish I had known those times would end so soon...I wouldn't have taken it for granted that you would always be here. I love and miss you with everything that I am. Good Bye Aunt Glori!

Mom, how do I write a goodbye letter to you? I just can't. I miss you so much and I still cannot believe that you are gone. My kids will miss the wrestling sessions that left you in pain for days. You rollerskated at Hunter's birthday party and yet you knew that your back would not be the same. You gave 100% of yourself to everything you did and to everyone in your life. God blessed you with that incredible gift! I will miss you Mom..more than you will ever know!
Your daughter, Treva
October 25, 2010
Mom, you have left your fingerprints all over our lives. You were the warm blanket on a cold day...the hug that made everything seem better...the cup of coffee that started the day...the problem solver...the special gift that brightened the day...you were Mom. You were Grandma Glori. We will miss you terribly. I will miss you deeply. Love you Mom!!
