To the Hoggany and Stacy Family

I was a former co-work with Gladys at the Child Development Center and she was a joy to be around. I enjoyed my talks with her about God and I know that she is with him now. Therefore, I prayed that God gives you the peace that passes all understanding, because she is at peace with the Father.

To the Hoggany-Stacy Family:
My condolences to you. Rosa, Erveena, Ellen and family; I was greatly saddened to hear of Gladys' passing. I thank God for the memories I have of her and your family, Aunt Colean & Unc Hill when I moved to Va Bch and we waited in your home for the school bus. I remember Gladys' smile and glad to have seen her at our Class '65 Reunion in 2005 and at Mt. Olive on that Sunday. Bless you all.
May God comfort and strengthen you.

With love, in Prayer & Sympathy
