Gloria had a goal of traveling and visiting the entire United States, she traveled to 48 of 50 States. She enjoyed crafting wreaths, diamond art, pictures and flags from wood; sewing quilts; gardening and canning. Above all, Gloria cherished the time spent with her family; especially her six dear rescue dogs: Ghost, Diva, Dana, Lambo, Sadie and Echo.

Honoring Gloria’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life will be announced at a later date arranged by the family. Those planning an expression of sympathy may wish to consider memorials to ASPCA, The Incredible Dr. Pol, Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet, or any animal rescue of choice.
