David Gloria, 60, of East Toledo, Ohio, passed away May 24, 2023 at Mercy St. Charles Hospital after a courageous battle with stage 4 cancer. David was born in Oregon, Ohio on September 15, 1962 to Luis Gloria and Carol (Naparstek) Lee. He was a 1981 graduate of Cardinal Stritch High School and continued his education becoming an electrician for IBEW Local 8, retiring after 40 years of service. David was a member of AA and the Latino Labor Council. He enjoyed skateboarding and all things audio, even DJing in his spare time. David had a special bond with his dog, Chunky Monkey, who was always by his side. Left to forever cherish his memory are his sons, David (Samantha) and Matthew Gloria; granddaughter, Ava Gloria; four-legged companion, Chunky Monkey; special friend, Kim Tyra; and siblings, Mark, Nick, Lou (Jill), and Lisa; and many nieces and nephews. David was preceded in death by his parents, Luis Gloria and Carol Lee.

So sad to hear of David passing. Tons of good memories growing up and attending elementary school together. Thankful that our son had the opportunity to share fellowship with David through their friendship. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family. God Bless! 05ers
