Rest in Peace, Aunt Gloria (my Godmother). I will treasure so many memories, from you and Uncle George playing Sheepshead with my parents, every Saturday… to your homemade Angelfood, that my dad had to rescue away from Pudgy on Christmas… to our 4th of July get-togethers at your condo. Say hi to Uncle George in Heaven! You will be greatly missed and loved… Until we meet again! ❤️
Attachment
I know you will be busy reuniting with George, your mother, father, sister/brother-in-law and all that passed before you. Arleen and I weren’t able to see too often in recent years and we will forever miss you.
We had fun and funny times (until we cried); playing sheepshead, badminton or croquette. Your stuffed mushrooms were always a favorite. as were you. Keep us in your prayers and watch over us.
I am so sorry to hear about Gloria passing away. She was a wonderful neighbor all the years we lived across the street from her. She shared goodies she made with us and I looked forward to the many walks we used to take aroound the neighborhood. I missed her when she moved away. But Bill and I were able to visit her a few times before Bill gave up driving. May she rear in peace now with her Lord.
The one thing I will always remember about Gloria is that smile of hers. I just smile thinking of it. She was so friendly and kind, and was truly interested in you. She was a wonderful person.
