GLADYS WILL BE MISSED. SHE "HUNG OUT" WITH US EVERY NIGHT AND WE ENJOYED PLAYING BINGO, LCR, AND WATCHING THE STEELERS WHILE ROOTING FOR HER NUMBERS ON THE FOOTBALL POOL. SHE WAS WELL THOUGHT OF AND LOVED HERE AT BRIDGEVILLE MANOR. SHE MADE THIS HER HOME FOR OVER 20 YEARS. I HAD THE PRIVILEDGE OF KNOWING HER FOR THE PAST 8 YEARS AND ENJOYED MANY LAUGHS AND GOOD TIMES. NEVER FORGET YOU GLADYS.
