    Gloria worked with me for many years as a Triage nurse in Pittsburgh. Although I moved away and lost touch I will never forget her sense of humor and concern and care for her patients. It looks like her family grew substantially over the years. I am sure that this made her very happy, I will always remember her, God has her now...Julie

    I was truly blest to have Gloria as my cousin all my life. We didn't get to see each other but I sure enjoyed our visits by telephone. Gloria has gone to our Heavenly Home. May she rest in peace.

    Gloria, thankyou for all the years you have been my cousin. While we didn't actually see each other as I live in Oregon I sure enjoyed the phone conversations we had. It was always a joy to talk to you. I will truly miss our conversations. May you rest in peace. Love you, Cathy
