Celebration of Life
The Best of Times
I was saddened to hear of Gloria’s passing. There are so many memories from Juvenile Court and fun times my husband, Jimmie, and I shared with her and friends from JDRC. Gloria was a loyal friend who spoke her mind and I will miss her. My condolences to David and her family.
Gloria will truly be missed. I have worked with her for the last 39 years. She was always a delight. We used to joke with each other about not being retired yet. I will miss seeing her everyday. My thoughts and prayers are with her family friends today as you celebrate her life.
Remembering Gloria makes me laugh and cry at the same time.
She was a dedicated, loving person with a heart of gold. Full of grace and wisdom,
I worked with her at the Juvenile Court for over 40 years. She gave her life to the Judicial System. She inspired us with her strong work ethic, and she leaves behind a legacy of being a great teacher deserving of respect and dignity.
Rest in Peace my friend.
Love, Lee Ann
Gloria will be sadly missed. She was so helpful to me in so many ways. Her acerbic humor made my day! My deepest sympathy to her husband, family and friends. I will be out of town on Saturday and do not think I will be back in time to attend her funeral. If not, I will be with you in prayer.
