I have many fond memories with Gloria. I loved our family visits to Glorias house as children, I remember always wanting to hang out in her spa pool out the back and the baking she did was divine. Most of all I will miss Glorias light, like a soft glow that when she entered the room you felt a warm presence with a sense of safety and joy, I'm not sure how else to describe it. I Miss you Gloria........ Love Nathaniel.

A beautiful tribute to a beautiful lady. Will hold close our memories of sleep overs and visits to Little Waihi, how to make toffee apples, the reason why I started collecting match boxes, my first job working in a library amongst others, all because of you. Rest in peace, love you Aunty Gloria x
