Bill and family,
So very sorry for your loss. Gloria was such a wonderful person. I enjoyed working with her so much at Enka Middle School and have great memories of her. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Bill and Family…..we love Gloria and we know that our lives are far richer from having her in it. My girls loved having her as a coach…….and I loved working with her. We go wayyyyy back to her trophy-selling days, but I’m happy that she is sitting at the feet of Jesus right now. God bless you all.
Bill, I’m so sorry that you have lost sweet Gloria. She was a positive influence for a lot of kids, and quite the craft lady! We will miss her. God bless you.
