She loved to dance, especially at weddings and other happy occasions. Her favorite sport to play was basketball, she loved the Yankees and enjoyed traveling with both her husband and friends. She married her high school sweetheart and they lived a very happy life together. Gloria loved being a mom and grandma and great grandma.
