Not sure what to say?

I want to extend my sympathy to the family of Gloria Getz, especially Pete. Gloria was a very special person who dedicated her life to helping others. I had the opportunity of working with her many years ago as a United Way volunteer and I have fond memories of Gloria and Pete at a dinner at a co-workers house. I also had the privilege of working with Pete when he ran the Job Corp. I am so sorry for your loss. Gloria was a sweet woman with a warm personality and a great sense of humor. She...

John,

I'm so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Gloria Getz was a kind person and a skilled professional. Gloria was a trail blazer, she was a woman in a profession dominated, at the time, by men and she proved that a labor background could be a springboard for other career opportunites at the United Way. I consider myself lucky to have counted Gloria as a friend. Rest in peace, Baroness!

Pete & Family,
Gloria was a special person. I had the
pleasure of knowing and enjoying Gloria's
friendship for over 25 years. She was a very kindhearted and sweet lady. Gloria
had the ability to make people laugh and she know how to have a good time. My
deepest sympathy to you and your family.

Gloria was a wonderful lady. Her and Pete were big supporters of The Salvation Army as he served on the Board there for many years. To Pete and the family, may God comfort your sorrow at the loss of this lovely lady.

George and Family,
So sorry to hear of Gloria's passing. She was a great lady and always had a smile that would light up a room. May all your memories keep her ever close to all of you.
