Not sure what to say?

We remember the first day you came to live with us. You sat on your new bed in a new room and said, "I'm so happy". We've been blessed to have had you with us the past 6 years. We will truly miss you, but know you're even happier now. All our love. Dennis & Barbara

I worked with Gladys at Lehigh County Vo-Tech School and liked her from the start. She was a very caring and kind lady who always had a kind word about every one. It has been years since we last saw one another but I thought of her and her kindness so so often. I feel very fortunate to have known her, she will never be forgotten.

I have nothing but fond memories of Gladys. She always had a smile on her face and was full of joy. My greatest memory of her is when I began entertaining as Chump the Clown. She told me she had the perfect pair of pants she could give me for my costume. She was right! The pants she gave me were pants that she used to wear. They had broad blue and white stripes with huge yellow flowers all over them. They certainly added a comical flare to my costume. I will forever see her smile and hear her...

She was a wonderful person. I always looked forward to seeing her, which wasn't very often as she was so incredibly healthy. I really never had to anything to provide care for her. The grace of God and her own common sense took care of all that.

My sweet Mom....Thank you for being the best Mom a daughter could ask for. You always had kind words, a big heart, and a smile I will never forget. I hope you had one heck of a reunion on Sunday. Jack and I will love and miss you forever! Fly high with the Angels♥

Dear Families, What a pleasure it was to have known Gladys, her loving and witty soul will remain in fond memories. Sending our sympathy and prayers to all Love, Eric Tammy Leah & Ryan

Barbara and Donna and Family,
It is an Honor to be part of a Family so loving and kind in so many ways. The sharing of your Mother was always a blessing as well as her humor and great food. My memories of Aunt Gladys will always be stored in my thoughts.
Prayers and Kind Thoughts,
Love,
Gary and Rebecca

To Donna and family,
What a remarkable life Gladys lived. At 102 years old, she was a truly special woman whose kindness, warmth, and loving spirit touched everyone around her. She had a way of making others feel cared for, and her memory will always be a blessing to those who knew her.

Please know you and your family are in my thoughts during this difficult time. May you find comfort in the love she shared so generously and in the many wonderful memories that will live on.

You were always my favorite fun and funny aunt. Thanksgivings at your house were raucous, joyful times. You made the best milk custard pies from the dough scraps. Heaven is getting a wonderful addition.
