Mary Gloria was a very hardworking woman who’s first job was working in the fields picking fruit, then spent the next 25 years working in the semiconductor industry and moved on to her final job as a successful realtor where she worked until her late 80’s.

Mary Gloria was a very spiritual woman who prayed regularly, she was an avid walker who would walk 3-6 miles each day; her favorite pastime activity was going to the casino to play the slot machines. Mary Gloria’s family was everything to her and she was everything to them — she was the glue that held the family together — their rock, their Queen; she was a great friend and coworker and will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
