Gloria Knight Lee Ferrera

FERRERA Gloria Knight Lee Ferrera on March 1, 2012, this lovely lady entered into eternal rest to be with God. She was 90 years old. Her husband, Carlos Ferrera, preceded her in death. Gloria is the beloved Mother of Gary Lee and his wife, Paula; Stephen Lee and his wife, Judy; and Clayton Lee. She was a doting Grandmother to her four Grandchildren, Marigny Lee and Cullen Lee; Ryan Lee (and his wife, Koli), and Barrett Lee (and his wife, Katia). She was also a proud Great-Grandmother of Kiaya and Kessler Lee, and Harrison and Landen Lee. Gloria was born in New Orleans, to Lydia Harrison Knight and Charles Knight. She was their only child. She was a most devoted daughter to her Mother and loving and caring not only to her family, but to everyone she touched. She always set a wonderful example, never said an unkind word, and always had a smile, a word of encouragement, or a helping hand to offer. She was charming and graceful, even during times of adversity. Hers was a life well lived, and her presence here has made the world a better place. She will be missed by her loving family. Before her decline in health, she was joyfully and actively involved with the P.E.O. Sisterhood, Raintree Children and Family Services, and The Metairie Garden Club. The family is extremely grateful to Gloria's caregivers that were with her until the end of her life: Stella Keller and Joyce Holloway.
