Recently Gloria was a resident of Wynhoven Healthcare Center. “Mother - One love that lasts forever is the very first we know, the love our Mothers gives us from the start. From then comes every comfort and security we need and countless gifts from an unselfish heart. Through the passing years, no matter where our lives may take us, our Mothers’ love stays with us deep inside. We hear her voice of wisdom, we feel her tender touch, we see her gentle smile of joy and pride. Even when she tries so hard to just become a friend, at heart we’re always little ones to her. All our grown-up lives, we still enjoy her love and care exactly like the children that we were. When we think back to childhood, some of our most tender, sentimental memories are of you, Mother, and the way you touched our life with your love. You gave us something special that only you could give – you gave us yourself and your time, and you gave us the heartwarming felling of being loved – a feeling we will keep forever”.
