My Daring Aunt ~ You were a shining Light of Love, Compassion & Friendship to All. I have so many special memories of summers spent with you as I was growing up. Far too many to even name. You were my favorite Aunt to be privileged to hang out with, hands down. As an adult, I treasured our long phone calls, and emails.You were always there for me, always. My heart rejoices, and is sad, at the same time. I am happy that you have gone Home. But you will be missed beyond all that words could convey. I love you Dear One, and we will meet again.

While we rejoice that Grandma Gloria is where her heart longed to be, we can't help but be left with a hole that only she could fill. She was an incredibly special lady and I'm thankful for all of the wonderful memories we have. As I sit here reflecting on all the good times, I'm reminded how much she loved Jesus and everyone that passed through her doors. How she was able to master every new gadget or technology, from the first bag car phone to her fancy computer. How she threw an epic family reunion at her house every New Year's Eve, staying up to 3 or 4 am every night like a teenager. How she was famous for her dressing and chocolate pies, and I'm thankful she shared her recipes. How she loved me and my kids to the moon and back. How she never missed sending us cards for every occasion and attended every birthday party. I am thankful for all the years we had her. I will miss her wanting to "make our picture", calling with all the latest family news which could take hours, and sitting in her kitchen helping her make banana pudding. Until we meet again GG... we will miss you always.

Aunt Gloria spent a lifetime showing unconditional love to a great big family & all their weirdo friends! What great memories.You are truly loved and missed by all of us. . 2 Corinthians 5:8 8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

My deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Mrs. Whitman for your loss. No doubt she lived a long, fulfilling life, she loved her family, and I know you will miss her dearly. I hope you can draw comfort from Gods word, as I have, where He promises us that there is going to be a resurrection and that we can be reunited with our dear loved ones again - right here on the earth. (John 5:28,29; Psalms 37:9,10) If you’d like to read more comforting thoughts from Gods word, and his plan for our future, please visit the Bible based website - jw.org.
