I’m sorry I just learned that your dear mom passed away last year. Gloria was a wonderful woman, mother, wife and a dear friend to so many. I have so many great childhood memories of being with the entire Farrey family. I hope that each of her children see this message and would love to connect with any of you if you’d like! My deepest sympathy and love to all of you – John.

Mrs. Gloria was one of my daughter's first teachers at Greentree Preschool. She brought fun and joy to each day. My condolences to your family! I'm glad I'll see her again in Heaven.

Gloria´s testimony was a key component in my coming to u set stand salvation through Christ alone. She was not only my cousin, but more importantly, she was and will eternally be, my sister in Christ. Thankful for that bond that we share.

Gloria was a very talented and accomplished majorette. She always thought of others. When we came back to the States she had a surprise welcome home party at her house with the other cousins there. Condolences to the family.

Always remembered Mrs. Farrey! When I was little, my mom and Gloria would "coffee clutch" on Kedzie!

I have wonderful memories of Gloria from Bethany Chapel. In the women’s Bible studies and serving committees, she was always working diligently. She was a great organizer and a lots of fun to be with. She will be missed!

A role model and inspiration. She lived her religious belief. Both Gloria and Pat raised a family to be proud of. Since brothers married sisters, we are as close as cousins could be without actually being sisters.. Her parents included our family in many outings. Happy days growing up. She will be missed by hundreds of people. Yes, one person can make a difference! Condolences from all our family members.

I was greatly blessed by the times I shared with Gloria at Bethany Chapel. She gave some great insight during the Wednesday morning Bible studies. It was always a joy to work with her on a serving committee. She was so creative and such a good organizer. I was inspired by her dedication and hard work. Always concerned for others.
In loving memory,

As being one of the younger cousins I remember her in beautiful sparkle majorette costumes. She was in a lot of parades always tossing her baton high in the air. There were so many trophies and awards on the TV that her mom, Auntie Veronica, had to start putting them all over the house. She was much admired by all. I also remember going to her first home with Pat and all the kids, she painted each room in bright, prime colors, claiming it would help the kids be creative. She love Pat and each of her children and all of us from the Czarnecki Family. She was LOVE. Condolences to all in the Farrey Family. May she rest in peace and happy to be reunited with Pat and her Lord/

My sympathies to all members of the Farrey family. Since my parents have both passed on and I no longer live in the Chicago suburban area, I have been out of touch. I recall her smiling face at many of the earlier family events on banquet halls of Chicago.
My condolences to all of the Farrey children and families.
May you remember your mother’s happy smile and warm heart. And May she rest peacefully in the arms of our Lord and Savior. Donna Langheld Skaggs, Urbana IL

Reading your inspiring mother's life story reasserts the life-changing results of a neighborhood Bible study. My sincere condolences.

Gloria was the delight of younger cousins. She was a baton twirling polka dancer and was so cool in the 1950s when she lived at grandma's house. The Czarnecki clan will miss her. She did make it to a family reunion in Lemont and stayed for the group photo. Shocked and saddened by the news.
