Jan and Jodi, I don't think either of you remember me but I worked with your mother at CMF&Z advertising in the 1970's. We became friends and I got to know the both of you. As it happens in life we lost touch but I remember your mother with warm thoughts. She always made me smile. I know she is making everyone smile where she is now!

Jan and Jodi, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this tough time. Think of all the memories and cherish them. Peace be with you, JR

To Jan, Jodi and all of Gloria's loved ones, I remember your Mom with great affection from the years we shared at KCRG. She was a delight to be around, and her sense of humor was wonderful. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Mary Taylor

I met Gloria when she and my mother were living in at Winslow in Marion. Gloria immediately took a liking to my mother and the two became instant friends. Gloria was so incredibly nice to my mother and to me. It was always a pleasure to just sit and chat with Gloria about any topic or problem. She was such a great listener and always had a way of making your troubles seem like no big deal. Gloria always looked like she got off the set of some Hollywood movie; despite her pain and suffering she was always cheerful and served as inspiration to both me and my mother and I am sure for countless other. I am so sorry for your loss but hope that memories of Gloria bring joy and comfort to you now and forever.
