My heart is heavy with saddness today and it bleeds a tear on the passing of the last of the legacy that was so dear to us. I have so many fond memories of our families growing up together, it was like one big happy family. Your Mother was my mother and my mother was your mother. I remember our girls only Mother's Day trips touring S. County, there wasn't a place we missed from RT 41 to Gt. Barrington. We had so much fun. Mom's kept us laughing all the way. One year, I think it was July 4th 1976 we had to stop and sing Happy Birthday to America whenever we saw an American Flag. I loved your mother as much as I loved mine, and I will miss her just as much.

So so many memories. My heart is out to the family. Its so sad to have someone that made so many people happy leave this world. I guess it is her time to start a new. My most fondness memory was at Christmas one year. Her sons and step son brought a tree home. We held up great, while praising them for the nice tree. I wish I had a picture of that. As soon as they left the room, we fell out laughing. Straight from the belly laugh. It was an all nighter. We decorated the tree (stem and all), and to our surprise it became the most beautiful tree ever. Thank you Gloria, I'll never forget that Christmas. Oh and real quick, thanks for drinking beer with me silly. (Gloria was not a beer drinker)

To everyone in Gloria's Family, our families have known each other for as long as I can remember. I remember working on your Mom's car with my Dad. She and your Dad were great friends of my parents, George and Marion. Gloria was a pistol,. Her sense of humor, her laugh, her caring for others were just a few of her endearing qualities. She wasn't afraid to give her opinion either. One of my favorite memories of her were at the softball games at Rising Field. She cheered her team on with her "Can of Corn" chant. She was small and mighty that's for sure. After our fire in '74 she and your family helped us so much. For that we have always been grateful. I can't tell you just how much I loved your Mom. What a presence, what a spirit. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. If there is anything that I can do please don't hesitate to let me know. God bless.
