I am saddened with hearing of Gloria's passing. My first thought at the news was "now she's with Rudy again", as I know she missed him so much.I have enjoyed our visits at the dental office through many years. She was so proud of her children, grandchildren and great grand kids. I hope, in time, that warm memories replace the sadness and pain you may be feeling. I wish all of you comfort and peace. My deepest sympathies, Val
