I bought this painting today and it had this card taped to the back that said Gladys M. Carter. Just wanted to see if this is the actual artist and to say I love it!

I found an oil painting that I think your mother did. Turned up at a thrift store in indianapolis. There was a card taped to the back with Gladys Carter name on it. Just wanted to see if she is really who painted it and to tell you I love it!

Faith, it was so nice to see you out at the lake today and I was so very sorry to hear about the passing of your Mom. She was such a lovely person. She and your Dad meant the world to my parents, and they were so kind and welcoming to me and my sisters as well. My deepest condolences to you and your entire family. With love, Kathy Savage Mills (daughter of Gene and Joan Savage)

So sorry to hear of Gladys passing. She was a frequent guest at Scoops n More with her lovely caregiver. Enjoying maple walnut while always looking so put together with matching sweater and nails. Rest peaceful Gladys.

Faith dear - You especially and your sisters are in my thoughts as I also have fond memories of your dear Mom, the days we were all raising our young families in South Lynnfield and following them through South school and beyond. Gladdie was a loving and lovely person to know.

I am sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. I remember Gladys as a beautiful and kind woman. I am certain I spent my early childhood running from our house to the Carter house. The Cronins were so very lucky to have been the house next door. Thinking of you all. Cynthia Cronin Chagnon
