Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years. May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.

Gloria served as Bridge Coordinator for the Greater New Orleans Senior Olympic Tournament. She and her sister Barbara were always kind and wiling workers. It was a pleasure knowing her. My condolences to Barbara and the family.
