Gloria was beautiful inside and out, always loving and kind. We will always appreciate the times she and Henry visited Mary and Alex, both in Detroit and Chicago and always remembered them at the holidays. She was a pillar of strength and will always be remembered with much love. God bless and may she Rest In Peace with the angels.
