To Les and family, So sorry to hear the loss of Gloria. She was a positive and wonderful person and she always had a beautiful smile. She was always interested in people around her and their lives.

To Les and the family. I am thinking of you all today as you farewell dearest Gloria. Fate brought our families together at Aussie Bay, Marlborough Sounds nearly 40 years ago. Gloria will remain with me forever, her smile, her wit, her caring ways, crafting skills but most of all, her uniqueness. I miss her already but know she will always be close. Sending love and support to her main legacy, her wonderful family. Xxx Lois
