Knowing Gloria has been a gift – she was always an inspiration to me, and will be sorely missed. From her upbeat ways to her willingness to dig in and get a job done at the parish, Gloria gave all who knew her an example of how to live. She and Joe were the couple we all loved and admired. They are together again.
