Gladys was always upbeat and smiling. She will make Heaven a happier place.
Gladys will truly be missed. My condolences to her family.
Gladys was a treasured member of our Sunday School class at West Asheville Baptist. Her treasured friendship, her regular caring cards for birthdays, etc., transportation for her handicapped friend to SS and Wednesday evening meals, all this and more, will be so missed. Gladys loved us and we loved her and share our sympathy and love with her dear family. Blessings to each of you! Winsome-Faith Sunday School Class.
