Dear Gary, Gail and family,

    I was so sad to learn of cousin Gloria's passing. I remember as a child visiting your home in  North Palm Beach. You both were teenagers then. It was my families first visit to Florida and my parents (Ralph and Sandra) took us to meet dad's cousin Eddie, and his wife Gloria. What a wonderful time we had. Your parents were so kind and gracious to us . You all made our stay so much fun.

 I love the picture of your grandpa and grandma Maniscalco (Uncle Eddie and Aunt Millie), Aunt Margret, you and your parents when they were young. Your grandfather and Aunt Margaret are my grandfather's (Eugene Maniscalco)  older brother and sister. 

I'm happy to know that Gloria lived such a long and full life surrounded by so much love.  What a legacy she has left!

 With my sincere condolences, 
                                                  
   Tammy Maniscalco Kocher

This was so cute…Mary Louise Hagan (my dear friend Leslie’s mom)  drove my mom to ALDIs so they could grocery shop. They ran into another mutual friend of Leslie and I who took this photo and sent it to our entire group of friends! Both Mom and Mary Louise were 93! We were very thankful they had each other

I tried to bring her favorite treats to eat every “Covid” visit. She use to enjoy these Publix apple pastries

Covid lock down was difficult and when we could finally start visitation it was outside for only 1 hour per visit

Mommy loved to paint! This is at a class at St. George Village, Roswell, GA

I was so blessed to have Aunt Gloria, Uncle Eddie, Gary and Gail not far from me when I moved down to Florida. So many good memories of visiting and sharing holidays with them. You were a great aunt and I will miss you dearly. Rest In Peace with uncle Eddie and the rest of the family, until we meet again. ♥️♥️

Dear Gary and Gail,I have such fond memories of your mom and found this photo taken 8 years ago when she was living at Allegro next to my mom.  What  a coincidence that was! I will always remember and cherish the warmth and kindness your parents extended to me as I knew I could stop by to the home in North Palm Beach anytime unannounced , no matter what time of day they always had something cooking ! Sending prayers of comfort to you and family,  Love Christine Gomes Shalloway

So many great memories of my Aunt Gloria and her family.  Meeting her at 11:30 am mass every Sunday with my Dad, sitting on her plastic covered couch in the summer and not being able to unstick myself (lol), all those visits in Hicksville, the time she and Uncle Eddie put up me and two of my high school friends in Florida during our spring break and lending us their pristine white car to go to Disney, the pinches of my chubby cheeks and her telling me I needed to lose weight (She was right) while Uncle Eddie sneaked us into his Tastycake truck to pick out a snack.   It was great to have family so close by.  I miss that living away from everyone but will always cherish the memories.  May she find peace in God’s hands.  I know she will. She will be with so many that went before her.   Now all the brothers and sisters will be together.  I hope God can handle them all. 😆 they so loved each other and showed it in their own special way. 

I will miss our visits and I am happy that we were able to see this past November.  Thank you for loving us all just as we were.  You saved our childhood when we though as a family we could not go on.  You are at peace and with your beloved Eddie as well as your sister and brothers.  Rest in Peace Aunt Gloria my namesake and know that you are cherished in death as you were in life

My Aunt Gloria was a wonderful person. I really can’t put one memory down as my childhood with my sister Gloria and my brother Samuel was spent with my Aunt and her incredibly beloved husband at her home in Long Island.  We pretty much were there every weekend and we had the most wonderful time with Gary and Gail just hanging out and spending time in what we called the country. We were apartment kids so having grass under our feet and a pool to swim in was luxury. Food and laughter and love knew no boundaries. How lucky we were to have her in our lives.  Family is God’s way of keeping us grounded and in touch with one another. How I will miss her calling me kiddo. Rest In Peace my sweet Aunt. You were and will always be loved by all of us.
