Mother's burial will be on February 14th at Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington, VA. Our family will be there to witness her joining my father - what a party they will have! I am sure she will seek out Lawrence Welk to provide the entertainment.

The importance of her family to Mom is her legacy, one she passed to we children. I will be eternally grateful that she was chosen to be our Mom, and thankful for all that she did for us throughout her life time. The wonderful memories we have are all because of Mom and will never be forgotten.

Gloria was such a sweet and caring person. Always concerned about other's happiness. It was always a pleasure to dine and visit with her. She was just a very special lady.

To my sweet cousins,I am grieving with you at this time.What a lady Aunt Gloria was, She was one you never ever forget and she never changed. She was proper and very graceful, had to have everything just right and was such a loving lady. A lady from the begining. i always loved it when we all cousins would spend time together and she would tell us to be little ladies, but that was the furtherest thing from our mind, course she never knew what we thought about being ladies. HaHa There will always be a void left now in our family, she was the last living relative in the
Stanley clan, we cousins are all that is left. Such a sad day. I love you all with all that is in me. And i'll say Good Bye Aunt Gloria for the last time, I Love You. Millie

I will remember all the fun memories, us exchanging recipes and sharing dinner. I know that God has called his angel home but I miss you. The girls are being brave and I know how heavy their hearts are. Now you can join those who you have missed. I love you. I will always be your #2 daughter. Rest peacefully.
