In lieu of flowers a memorial fund is being established by her family.
The family would like to thank the staff at Brewster Village for the care given to Gloria.
We had so much fun all our years of shopping, especially the hectic, crazy, exhausting Christmas time! I finally got you swimming in the lake at the cottage, and we had fun.
I gave you the gambling bug, and you were winning.
I will miss not being with you, till we meet again,
I love you!
Janet
