It is with sincere regret that I heard of the sudden passing of Gladys. I had the pleasure of meeting Gladys when I opened Classic Engraving 7 years ago. She was always a pleasure to deal with as a customer, but we soon struck up a friendship as she was always so easy to talk to. I know this is not an easy time of year to lose anyone and my heart goes out to her family and close friends. I hope that your good memories keep her close in your heart. - Posted by: Eileen Hoover (Friend) on: Jan 14, 2005

To: Lori & Terri and Rachel, Dusty and Elymer On Dec. 6 when Gladys left work to get ready for her surgery. I never realized that was the last time I would see her. We hugged and said I'll see you soon. I met Gladys the day I start work at SCO, 5 years ago. My birthday, was a day before hers. Our lives were so similar growing up. We laughed a lot about that. I will surely miss Gladys, she was caring and loving to her family and friends. - Posted by: Ellen J. Whitford (Co-Worker) on: Jan 14, 2005
