Prayers and condolences to Paul and his wife. I was your Mothers classmate and lived two houses from your Mom our senior year. We walked to school together , we were both in the
class play and shared many great times. Rest in Peace dear friend.
I had the privilege of assisting Gloria in selling her condo…she had the most incredible Angel collection…I felt she was an Angel, herself!!!
May your mother have eternal peace and joy with our loving God. She was a woman of faith and lived and loved life and you. I remember her well from Nativity and your aunt Sr. Jean as she was my teacher at St. James in Grand Forks. Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon her. Fr. Tim Bushy
Very sorry for the loss of your mother. I remember her as a very nice and sweet person
Thinking of all of you at this time. With deepest sympathies
May she be welcomed home by all her loved ones who have gone before her.
Just heard of Gloria’s death. I am so sorry, Paul; she was such a genuine, caring person. I remember many conversations with her especially when you and Bill were classmates at Holy Spirit and Shanley. May your fond memories bring you peace….cherish them!
