Obituary For Gladys May Heinauer

Heinauer, Gladys May (Hollihan), still beautiful at 92, our girl Glady joined her sweetheart Tom in Heaven on Monday, March 9, 2020. They met at the FBI where dad was an agent and she was a secretary. They attended ex-agents social gatherings for many years. She loved her family, the beach, margaritas and being "Gigi" to her great-grandchildren. She lived life to the fullest, never missing a party or a chance to entertain her grandchildren with her hilarious antics. Always perfectly groomed and coiffed, Glady was a fashionista til the end. She had great taste and an enviable sense of style. Originally from Shaler, she was the youngest of eight. Having five brothers, she grew up with a love of sports that became a lifelong passion. Football was her game of choice, besides her beloved Steelers, she adopted Pitt, Penn State and Notre Dame. The Pirates and Penguins rounded out her year.

    No deeper feeling of loss can be had. God gained an angel for certain! With all that's going on right now, if I don't get the opportunity in person, I want you to know how beloved Aunt Glad was to my whole family. She was a great lady in every way. I will miss her.

    Tom and Gladys became second parents to me during my college years with Lisa. They welcomed me into their joy-filled home and included me in family gatherings. We laughed and cried together, and I will remember beautiful Gladys always ready for a party- what fun they are having at their joyous reunion! Love to all of you
