Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this time. Heaven is a wonderful place, filled with God's glory and grace. What a blessed Savior we have in Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God! We look forward to being in Heaven but are willing to stay on earth as long as the Lord would like us to stay.

Moms stay in a very special part of our hearts, even after they pass. My Momma will remain in my memories as she was, a strong, beautiful, smart, funny and loving woman. Her legacy will continue through me, my sisters, sisters in law and our daughters! Rest in peace Momma, Love you. Don & Gloria forever :)

Everyone who would visit would leave with a little gift. My aunt just showed the faux fur coat she gave her during her visit. Her sweet handmade notecards, her beautiful smile, her amazing skin, her love of fashion and makeup.....being a mom to seven kids! It's truly amazing that she had 7 kids but would still manage to make many of my dance performances. I am forever grateful for my memories with her. God Bless, Bema.

My deepest sympathy to the entire family. Gloria loved everything and everyone in life brought her happiness . I remember how thrilled she was with her new Ford Mustang when they first came out. A house stands on the corner of 96th and Hamilton on the south side of Chicago in the Beverly neighborhood that has memories that will last forever !
