I am saying goodbye to a good friend until we meet again
When I first met Gloria as a friend of Polly my mother-in-law, I found her so easy to get alone with. I am so happy I had the chance to get to know such a thoughtful and fun person. I know you are looking down on us.
You are in our thoughts and prayers. David and Sarah
