Hi Everyone,
My prayers go out to family and love ones.
I would like to think that I was her favorite carpenter, whether its true or not.
I did major work on two of her homes and have known her for many years.
I told her once that she was the reason I’m still single, because once in her presence, life looks different.

I used to have brief conversations with her at Health Trac. She was a lovely friendly woman and I always considered her a nice person. To her family, please accept my sincere condolences.
Darryl & family, so sorry for the loss of Ms Gloria, sending our condolences, & prayers for comfort , peace & love during this awful time. May she R.I.H.
