Born October 6, 1926, Gloria was a lifelong resident of Tampa, Florida. She graduated from Jefferson High School and married the love of her life, Joseph P. Nicoletto in 1945. A true partner in every sense, Gloria was diligent and passionate about everything she tackled. She loved and supported her family, unconditionally and selflessly. Gloria was a virtuoso pianist, a beautiful soprano, a self-taught culinary master, and an avid golfer.

She was preceded in death by her husband of 67 years, Joseph Peter Nicoletto; parents, Francisco and Etelvina Fernandez; sister, Etelvina Alfieri Hutchins; brother, Frank Fernandez; nephew, Sammy Alfieri. Gloria is survived by her four children, Joseph P. Nicoletto Jr. (Renee), James Nicoletto (Karrol), Joyce Geis (Bill), Jan Arango; seven grandchildren, Kelly, Sandy, Joseph, Jennifer, Peter, Travis, Steven; nephew, Richard Alfieri; 13 great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren. The family will receive friends starting at 1 pm with formal services to begin promptly at 2 pm on November 27, 2021 at the Garden of Memories, 4207 E. Lake Ave., Tampa, Fl. 33610, interment to follow. The family wishes to thank all of those who loved and cared for Gloria. Please sign Gloria's guestbook at www.GardenofMemoriesTampa.com

Mrs. Nicoletto was always very charismatic! She exuded a vibrance and love that needed no words. Whether at a family function or running into her while shopping, she made you feel like family. You are all so lucky to have had such a wonderful long time with her, may God rest her soul and bring you comfort now and always. Much love,
Tara Edwards and family
