Her and her husband owned and operated Marin Roofing in Clovis, NM before retiring to Las Cruces, NM in 2015. Gloria was a strong lady who cared deeply for her family. She was a great homemaker and loving wife and mother. Gloria enjoyed visiting with her grandchildren. She also enjoyed planting flowers when she could. Gloria liked to crochet and paint statues. Although our mom had a long battle with illness and pain she would often say "there is always someone worse off" something she remembered her daddy saying. She was always there for her family and will be greatly missed.
