She was predeceased by her husband William on January 15, 2003; parents, Sarah and Thomas Doyle; brothers, James, Louis, Francis, Joseph Doyle; sisters, Celina Bowen, Dorothy Latimer and Ina Griggs. Gladys was born in Nova Scotia. After meeting Bill in Halifax during wartime, she moved to Winnipeg to marry him. Gladys worked at Eaton's before staying at home to raise her family. Her family was her number one priority. In her 40s Gladys developed rheumatoid arthritis and battled it bravely. She never gave up hope that one day a cure would be found. The family would like to thank the staff at Seven Oaks Hospital for their care and compassion. A memorial service will be held on Thursday, January 13 at 1:00 p.m. at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main St. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Gladys' memory to the Arthritis Society, 105-386 Broadway, Winnipeg, MB R3C 3R6.
