What Can I say about My Aunt Gladys, that everyone who loved and Knew her Doesn't all Ready Know? We all know how much she loved her family, how much she loved and missed her Brothers & Sisters .
All I can say about My Aunt Gladys is she was  full of love & Joy for her family, she Loved her Children more than anything , and after my mother’s passing her and Aunt Sara were always there for me, to give me loving advice when I asked. 

One of My most Fondest memory’s I have of Aunt Gladys and mom, is how we would drive every holiday to spend with Aunt Sara & Aunt Gladys. 
I Remember I would get into Trouble with my  cousins  , for stealing Grandmothers Desserts . 
I remember how Aunt Gladys Loved to read, how She drove down to FL, to visit My Mother, how me  Pamela,   Deanna and Paul  road in the back of the pickup , to Disney  World , By today’s standards we Shouldn’t be alive today , nor would we get away with that today 😂🤣🤣 . I also Remember Aunt Gladys teaching me card Games , Aunt Gladys always had a warm place for me to stay, when I was Active Duty &. Traveling under orders or  PCS  , (permanent change of station). 

Aunt Gladys always had a friendly  ear to listen to my problems or to help me with some Friendly Advice.  I will Love & Miss My Aunt Gladys Greatly . May she RIP, I will rest easy knowing her Pain & Suffering is over, and she is in Heaven with her Mother , Father, Brothers , Sisters, Children,  nephews,   Nieces , Cuz. 

I will Always Love and Miss you Aunt Gladys , I will see you when the Good Lord calls me home until then give my love to are family & everyone we Love & miss in Heaven . 

I remember when after Our father passed away.  Aunt Gladys  Would  always  make sure we have something under the tree at Christmas time. And all the summers vacations we spent with Aunt Gladys.
 Grandmother Mamie Shrives Live next-door to Aunt Gladys and we had great times going back-and-forth from Aunt Gladys home to grandmothers house. Especially at Thanksgiving time.



Some of my favorite times are when we had our holidays together.  We would have all kinds of food that filled the entire house. People everywhere and we were all laughing and having fun.  Our families were close and we always had a strong bond of relatives from our maternal side. The whole side of that family kept in touch--to this day!
I remember how you always made me laugh! You always had a quick wit and a sweet smile!
We went camping, swimming and did everything together. Which was a good thing because you saved my life on more than 1 occasion! 
I will miss you dearly but knowing you are with my momma makes me feel so much better.  Have fun up there, I'll see you soon.

My favorite memories were the time we spent with my mother’s sisters and their families. Holidays, summer vacations and all those good memories of growing up in a world with you in it.

Auntie G- I forgive you for telling  the whole household not to let me rinse dishes when I was little because I’d give everyone diarrhea... I was horrified and just wanted to be with Pammy! 😂

I loved you so much, We shared our unique red hair and the fiery spirit that goes along with the red hair and being the baby of the family. I know Pammy and I drove you crazy with our crazy shenanigans, and we appreciate your being tolerant of us, even in our 50’s.

My mother adored her baby sisters, you were so special to her and I loved the relationship The Shrieves Sax Sisters shared. The three of you had a bond that was enviable and I’m so happy you are all together again. 

This world will be so boring without the three of you in it, however...heaven is throwing a party right now welcoming you. I am so happy I was able to come and say goodbye to you. I love you. 

Your loving  🥰 niece, 

Tinker

You will be missed Aunt Gladys, I will always remember my trips to Arkansas to be with you and the family as a child and when you and Sarah came to see Grandma in Florida. I love you ❤️

Just know I am thinking of you and I am so sorry for your loss.    Byra Burke
