My Mom was the best. Thanks to all who contributed memorials.It is comforting to know that she was loved by so many friends and family. We are already missing her, but as a family we will have each other to rely on and support until we see Mom and Dad again. Thanks for the love and for those who were able to celebrate her life with us at Christ Church. God bless you all.

Mrs. Felder was fondly referred to as Ms. Tweety Birdas per the grandmother with sylvester and Tweety cartoons, She was always so kind and always had a smile on her face for friends and new acquaintinces.I pulled weeds for her one of the first summers after she and her family moved in across the street from us, which was hard work alrhough the payment was the BEST BANANA SPLIT I have ever hadcustom made of course. It's funny what we remeber about the people who cross our paths if life, but Ms. Tweety bird will always be a "sweet" memory.And above all her constant kindness as well as her dogs, shatzie,& debbie Camps beloved companion.

I probably have known Glory Felder for a shorter time than many of you. I met Mr. and Mrs. Felder in 1992 in a quite unusual way. Mrs. Felder did not say very much, nor did Mr. Felder. Rather, their daughter, Kathy, did most of the talking. I later came to find out that that was a family trait but for some reason, Mrs. Felder did not seem to be very outspoken. Rather, she just would say things like "bless your heart" or "wasn't that thoughtful". I took kind of a liking to Mr. and Mrs. Felder and they to me apparently. And within a few weeks, I was dating Kathy. We dated for 5 years, and all of that time Mrs. Felder remained very quiet, but very dignified and sweet. I really came to enjoy the Southern ways about her, calling me "darling" or "honey" or other such sweet things. Well eventually, I became a member of this family by marrying Kathy in June of 1997. I have come to love each and every member of the family and they have become my family. So while I may have only known Glory for a few years, I have a pleasure that no one else has; I married Glory's daughter. I can live with the memory of Glory Henning Felder for the rest of my life through the life of my precious wife and all of the other Felder family. I am most fortunate. I will miss Glory very much and no one can ever take her place, but her memories will always be all around me every single day through the lives of her children and grandchildren. I am a very proud member of this family. Proud to be the husband of her daughter, and the step-father to two of the finest young men I have ever met. I loved Glory, and I will continue to love her offspring for generations to come. I am so fortunate to have known her and to have become a part of such a wonderful family. See you on the other side NANA!

My memories start in 1st grade with her as a class mom and Kathy's mom. She always had Kathy dressed so nicely with her braids. I remember going to the old Ursuline Academy & helping to clean up the place when it was purchased by the Conservation Society. I worked with Kathy at NIOSA. My first time to see the ocean was with Kathy & her mom & dad which was also my first boating, fishing, crabbing, etc. in the ocean. Many fond memories of Port Aransas! Your mom & dad were the nicest, kindest, truly sweetest people and will be missed! Your mom & Kathy are the ones who helped with our weddings and celebrations back when we could still borrow the "family" silver punch set. There were weddings in the garden at Gran's house. Your family is great! Keep it that way! Love, Kathrin

Dear Family - I share your loss. Aunt Glory was one of God's lights on earth. Always loving and kind. She took me to my first opera in S.A which started my life long love of song. 
She lives in our memories. God bless all of you, Mollie

Mom was a GIVER! She gave of herself freely and abundantly. The great blessing she gave her family throughout her long life was that she loved unconditionally, just as Jesus loves us. She was our model. By her words and actions, she taught all those who knew her how to love each other. Though I will miss her earthly presence, her spirit is with me. I know Jesus must have said to her, I know you and I love you, my good and faithful servant! Welcome to Paradise! Mom would want all of us to remember her love, her smiles, her zest for life, and her desire to encourage and help all those she knew. Thanks Mom for everything!

My family and I are very grateful for the time that we recently spent with Larry and Linda at Rockport. We reminisced about the days in San Antonio and Port Aransas. We treasure those moments. Glory and Camp were great friends and we will miss both of them. God bless you all.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

My deepest sympathy for the loss of Glory. I do so regret that my quest to locate my cousin was too late for us to meet again after so many years. My memory of her is that of a beautiful young girl with such a sweet manner. I hope to meet with her children soon.

Glory's son Larry is my brother-in-law. I most remember Glory for her calm dignity and kindness to our family when we were grieving the loss of our own mother. She was so supportive to my older sister Linda, even helping Linda clean my mom's home in preparation for our family to gather following Mom's service. Glory's goodness will live on through her loving family. My heart goes out to them.

To the Felder family: Please accept our deepest sympathy upon the occasion of the death of this dear lady. We had the opportunity and priviledge to take communion to Glory over the past three years and visited with her in the ICU at Methodist Transplant Hospital.

You were loved so much, Nana, but I know that you are now at peace and are joining your husband in eternal life together. You will be missed always. 
Your loving granddaughter, Lory.
