Auntie Gloria,

I used to love coming to your cottage "up north" and especially remember the time I came with Aunt Delores & Carey & Grandma Haas. I remember the 3 of you kidding around - that one was the "smart" one, one was the "pretty" one (I think that was Grandma Haas!) and one was the "young" one but I just can't remember which was which!! It was so peaceful, cozy, and homey up there. Although, I remember your house on 20th Street and, of course, Marie Ct as well. They were all decorated so welcoming. You were always laughing and having a good time and enjoyed life. One could always count on a smile from you (and I must add - an afghan!) My children and I have many memories and all have an afghan from you which will be cherished always! Much Love & Good Times & Special Memories go with you -(Georgie!)

I'd have to say thanks for teaching me how to crochet, the fun playing cards at your house, the best chicken and dumplings soup (YUM) and all the desserts you used to make. Then catching you by grandma's house for the chit chat. R.I.P.! :)

My sympathy to all of Gloria's family.

Gloria (and George) were the best neighbors anyone could ever ask for.

Gloria was the most generous person. I have fond childhood memories of her.

God bless her.
