My Aunt Gloria was an amazing loving women. She was a cancer survivor, who battle this disease with courage. Her love of children was evident with the number of years she work in the school cafeteria. My Aunt Gloria was a devote Catholic and proud of her Italian heritage. Her life was cut short too soon. My Aunt Gloria has left an indelible mark on all she has touch and will remain forever in my heart and mind.
