On Monday November 24, 2014, I lost the love of my life and my rock. I guess the good Lord needed her more. Even though she never felt it, she touched many people during her short stay on this earth. Gladys was always putting family and friends ahead of herself. She passed away at St.Continue Reading

Mona Williams left a message on December 1, 2014:

Gladys was always a strong, supportive coworker at Vintage Parts. I will miss her voice, her humor. My condolences to the family. "Death is nothing at all. It does not count. I have only slipped away into the next room. Nothing has happened. Everything remains exactly as it was. I am I, and you are you, and the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged. Whatever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by the old familiar name. Speak of me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference into your tone. Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without an effort, without the ghost of a shadow upon it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was. There is absolute and unbroken continuity. What is this death but a negligible accident? Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am but waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just round the corner. All is well. Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before. How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!" Words by Henry Scott Holland
