I very sorry to hear of your loss. I too worked for Gloria when she came to Canadian from Ward Air. We laughed a lot. We enjoyed many fun times as a group. I still remember her pulling into the parking lot in her "camaro". She was a great addition to our gang, the 2 Bob's (Evans and palmer), Dave Diamond, Helen Forsythe, Marg Latter, Connie Diamond and our team of Heather YHM, Gary Nash, Henry Rego, Scott and myself.

Cheers Gloria!!!

My condolences to Brad and Gary, and Gloria's family. Gloria was my boss at Canadian Airlines Flight Operations for many years; she was a tough but fair boss - with her sense of humour and her lusty laugh always at the ready. Every Christmas she presented each of her staff with an engraved Christmas ornament-I still cherish all mine! I only just heard of her passing - Brad, she was very proud of you - I remember her proudly telling us when you began your display cabinet enterprise - God rest her soul.

Nana and Brad, so very sorry to hear of Gloria's passing. She was a wonderful person to work with. I loved her sense of humour. Everytime I hang the beautiful ornaments at Christmas that she engraved for me I see her smiling face. That's how I will remember her. Love Connie Diamond.
