Gloria Bagley

Born on June 3, 1947, in Wilburton, Oklahoma, Gloria was the daughter of Robert N. Hurley and Beatrice L. Pate. She was raised in Oklahoma and graduated from Lindsay High School in 1965. That same year, she married the love of her life, Carlos "Duane" Bagley, on June 25 in Santa Clara, California. In 1970, the couple returned to Oklahoma, where they spent the rest of their lives together. Duane preceded her in death in February 25, 2009.

Gloria was a proud member of the Choctaw and Chickasaw Nations and a lifelong Oklahoman. She was an accomplished florist and designer, known for her creativity, dedication, and great work ethic. Gloria was an honest and caring woman who loved deeply and gave generously. She found joy in the simple things, working in her yard, planting flowers, cooking for her loved ones, and enjoying a fun day at the casino, watching Thunder Basketball, football and Gunsmoke.

Her family was the light of her life. Gloria was a devoted wife, a loving mother, grandmother, and a true matriarch who always made sure her family was cared for. She loved her family, friends and neighbors, and her home was filled with laughter, often thanks to her grandchildren and the company of her beloved pets. Her kitties: Tom, Smokey, and Julio and Pete the white peacock, brought her great happiness.

Gloria is survived by her sons, Phil Bagley of Lexington, Oklahoma, and Mark Bagley of Norman, Oklahoma; her grandchildren, Julia Bagley, Evan Bagley, Preston Winn, and Ethan Sweeny; and great-grandchildren, Branch and Granger Winn. She is also survived by extended members of the Pate and Anderson families.

She was preceded in death by her husband Duane, her mother and father Beatrice and Ellis Anderson, her birth father Robert Hurley, and her beloved daughter Krista Winn.

A visitation will be held on Friday, June 27th, from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. at Primrose Funeral Service in Norman.

Gloria will be remembered for her generous heart, her vibrant personality, her honesty, and her strong work ethic. Her love for her family, friends, and pets was unwavering. She will be dearly missed.
