The Russo Family: I am sorry to hear about your wife Gloria - I know you will miss her. I only met her briefly and could tell that she was a special person, caring and loving- Gloria had tended to my mother, Paulette, while waiting for the EMT's to arrive. My mother passed away on March 19th. They are both at peace and will live forever in our hearts. My family extends their deepest sympathy. May God Bless you and give you peace.

Gloria was very special to me...A dear friend whom I will cherish forever in my heart! I love and miss her so much! She has helped me, not only with school but with life in general. She showed me the type of person I want to be. She is truly my inspiration. Gloria has touched and saved so many lives and I believe not only is she an Angel in heaven, she was already and Angel here on Earth!



Bobby, Paul & Tim, You guys are in my prayers constantly. I pray that you can be strong and remember the good times we had with her and the lives she's touched.



Gloria is now our Guardian angel and may she watch over us and help us to be strong. I love you very much!

It is difficult to write of such sadness about a special person that was always so vibrant, enthusiastic and "Gloria-s".



I have no doubt that in the hearts of everyone that truly loved her, she will live forever.
