Uncle Tom, Scott, Sandon, Shana, Stacy, Jeanne & Tommy,
I'm so sorry for the loss of Gloria, but I'm so thankful that I got to know her and love her over the years. She was one of the kindest, funniest people I've ever had the honor of knowing and she always made me, Taryn and my granddaughters feel important and loved. May she rest in peace.
