Gloria Preston Olson

I was a cooking student of Gloria's at the Cook's Nook and later in her home . As a former flight attendant , I was able to join Gloria on many of her culinary excursions around the world looking for the most authentic recipes of the region. She had a keen sense of adventure, courage , and tenacity to find the best meal whether in France , India , or Nepal. I thought she was the most fascinating person I had ever known . I still treasure her cookbook Culinary Classics.
With sympathy,

I am so very very sorry for your loss. May the love of the Lord Jesus bring comfort and peace in the days ahead. Deepest sympathy to all the family.

Gloria was a remarkable person in many areas as shown in her obituary. We met while attending Watkins Institute in the 1960s taking their courses. and continued our friendship through the years. Although after moving to another state, we visited together when I came to Nashville.
