My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Gloria's family. Gloria was such a beautiful woman both inside and out. She was a best friend to my mother and I will always remember the two of them shopping and kidding around laughing together. She was a wonderful person who always put her family first and cared so much about life........I know she will be truly missed...You're all in my thoughts and prayers.
