I was saddened to read about Gloria. I graduated high school with her...Bonneville class of 1961. She was always such a nice quiet girl and she accomplished so much over the years. I liked and admired her a lot. Please know I care and express my most sincere thoughts of sympathy and love to all of you. May you feel God’s loving arms around you to give you peace and comfort at this tender time.
