Godspeed! Aunti Gloria I will never forget your kindness, fun and generosity towards the kids back in the days. “Nancy’s husband Joey”
You were a great sister, sister-in-law and friend. We thank you for encouraging us to look at the house in North Reading as it was being built. We became your neighbor for more than 47 years.You were a great cook and always welcomed us into your home. You dressed like you just walked out of a magazine. God bless. RIP
We loved seeing auntie Gloria at Nonni’s house. She was always so happy to see us and our children. She was a lovely lady, absolutely beautiful-inside and out.
We are very sad for everyone who loved her.
Our deepest sympathy,
David and Donna Angelo

You were truly like a mom to me as I lost my mom so young. I learned so much from you all your special cookies and of course raviolis, which I still don’t have mastered!
I will miss you and love you dearly❤️

Thank you all for your posts. Our house was the meeting place back in the day (besides Nonnie & Papa’s house). I always remember the cookouts where everyone would show up and Uncle Joe would entertain everyone with his jokes and driving the bicycle with his impression of pin head. Great Uncles, Aunts and Cousins. We will all miss my mother who was loved by all. Dennis

Love your daughter-in -law Kathy xoxo
