Gloria was a very loving and giving person and loved her family and her nieces and nephews. She loved her church and was an active member of the UCW. She was a steward in the first united church and was a leader in explorers. She was also involved with the Tops group, enjoying her time with them. Gloria worked with the Department of Finance until retirement. She had many hobbies, one of which was quilting in which she excelled.

The family gratefully thanks all care workers on Gooseberry Lane, 1^st and 2^nd Floor, and Raspberry Road, who took such great care of her. They were her second family. She really enjoyed art classes and shows, and fashion shows she loved taking part in.

Following Glorias wishes, cremation has taken place. A visitation for family and friends will take place at Fillatre’s Funeral Home on St. Mark’s Avenue in Corner Brook on Saturday, July 11, 2026 from the hours of 1:30-3:00pm with the funeral service to follow in Fillatre’s Funeral Home Chapel beginning at 3:00pm with Rev.
