Gloria Regina Kent

Gloria was born on May 16, 1942, to Rudy and Josephine Aranda in Los Angeles, California. She graduated from Montebello High School and married Gaylon H Kent in 1965. She spent most of her professional life in hospital administration.

Gaylon and Gloria had two sons, Gaylon Mark and Loren Jackson. After many years of living in the San Gabriel Valley, she and Gaylon moved to Moreno Valley in the late 1980's, where both would eventually retire.

Gloria enjoyed crocheting and reading and watching television. She was preceded in death by her husband Gaylon H, her son Loren and her brother Dan. She is survived by her son Gaylon M, sisters Norma Ferrales and Sylvia Gandara, her brother Rudy Aranda, assorted nieces and nephews and her old and dear friend Marsha Wynne.

The Aranda family is scattered throughout Southern California, but always enjoyed at least two holidays a year for a family get together. Gloria and her sisters would "entertain" as a famous singing group for fun.

Gloria will be fondly remembered for her sense of humor.

"There is a place, I have been told,

Beyond an open gate

All have been invited

Where friends and loved ones wait

It holds eternal promise

Of everlasting peace

No pain or sorrow ever comes

And teardrops there have ceased

Abundant life is evident

Constant, fresh and new

A garden of provision

With Eternity in view

The promise is awaiting

A place we can abide

Fulfilled for all who answer

The call to come inside."
