Gloria was so special. We as neighbors, and we like to think as friends, have known Gloria, Joe and
family for forty plus years. She was so very hard working and with firmness, but kindness, raised
her family with love and care. She has earned a special place in our hearts as well as with her Joe in Heaven.

To Darlene, Donna and Michael
Your mom was a very happy person who always had a positive attitude toward life and a pleasant personality. She knew how to uplift the spirits of my mom and others that she encountered. She showed great caring love and concern for all of you and I'm sure that she will be missed by all who knew her. May she rest in peace.
