Dear Shanna and Courtney and the entire family of Gloria:
Such a truly wonderful lady, always so easy to chat with at the restaurant. It will be hard to fill her shoes around the restaurant but I know you girls will keep it going in her memory. We feel blessed that we got to know her over the years. May she rest in peace.

To My Family:
there are things that resonate in memories that no one can forget. For me, it was Gloria's laugh. She had a laugh that was so contagious, that I have many memories of me, Cheri and Glo laughing till we couldn't breathe. Her laugh came from her soul, and I have never heard another that could come close to hers.
To Cheri, Dale and my baby sisters:
my greatest heartfelt sympathies go out to you, and know that Chris and I pray for you every night. I know it is hard to believe, but every day will get easier.
Love you all
Kellie
