fue para nuestra familia un privilegio y honor haber conocido a nuestra hermana Gloria.
siempre con una sonrrisa en su rostro aun en momentos no muy buenos ella llegaba a la iglesia e irradiaba esa alegria para todos los que estaban a su alrededor.
una mujer de fe, y con esa seguridad de estar en la presencia del Senor, pues ahora descanza en los brazos de su Senor.
la gran "oye chica" dice presente en la patria celestial.
te recordaremos siempre hna. Gloria.

Psalm 116:6 "Dear in the eyes of the Lord the death of his saints." With deep sorrow in my heart, she lamented the passing of our dear sister in Christ and friend. We had the privilege and honor of having met her, she was very affectionate, kind and always was on her to help, send gifts to the children for their birthdays, give advice and especially with teenagers and young people. Her charisma was astonishing, always elegant as a lady. The Lord gave him gifts he was always aware of the needs of the church especially by calling our members & friends. My deepest condolences to Yolanda and her family, may the Lord give you peace, strength, and the Holy Spirit be upon you.

Gloria was a member of our church whom we will always remember with great affection.. Gloria brought joy to our congregation. She always took the time to help everyone out in any possible way. Gloria greeted everyone with a big smile and an “hola, como estas?” that was unique. Gloria was a member of different committees of our church and supported our ministry in many ways.
We are convinced that now Gloria rests in the arms of our Lord.
“ well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness “ (Matthew 25:23)
                    

En memoria a nuestra querida Tía Gloria, dedico esta canción a mi familia.

Jorge and I were saddened by the news of Gloria's passing.  

Her always constant kindness, love of God, humor and a true zest for life were always in the forefront for all to see and enjoy. Testimony of that are the words and actions of her grand-children, Glenn and Lissa and their families,  the constant love and care of her daughter Yolanda and the lovable attention of the entire Padilla Family. 
She was well loved and care for as she so well deserve.

Sharing in your sadness as you all remember her!

I met Gloria as a young man and right away she became part of our family.  She married my uncle Tomas and we share many beautiful times together.  After my uncle passed away Gloria got even closer to my mother (Edelmira), they would visit each other frequently and they would go to church together every Sunday.
Gloria lived an exceptional life, always mentioning nice things
about her daughter, grandchildren, nieces and brothers.
Gloria was lively, outgoing and always ready for a good laugh, times like today, we need more people like Gloria to bring a smile to our souls.


Bei unseren wenigen kurzen Begnungen haben wir Gloria als eine sehr fröhliche und aufgeschlossene Person kennengelernt.
Wir erinnern uns gern daran.

Dear abuela,
I couldn’t sleep last night. I knew you were on your way.  After two hours sleep I woke up crying. It breaks my heart that no one could be at your side during your final days, hours, minutes. You are someone who stood by the side of countless others, and here you are. I know you had the hearts of so very many friends and family as you reached for the hands of your brothers and sister. This gives me so much peace. 

When I think back on my childhood, my memories are often with you. Sunday night dinner at your house was always something to look forward to, and I learned to cook standing at your side in the kitchen. I remember being so proud when you first approved of my cooking skills. 

Not only a force in the kitchen, you were a true artist as a seamstress. I always tell the story of going into department stores with you, and your ability to pick up a garment, measure it with your hands, sketch something quickly on a scrap paper in your bag, and then sew it up perfectly. You are the inspiration that formed my career. 

During and after college I would come visit you and take you on spontaneous day trips around Los Angeles. Our special time together, going out to eat, visiting farmer’s markets, going to fabric stores downtown - always involved our shared loves of food and fashion. You have shaped me in more ways than you know. 

You lived your life always giving of yourself to others, virtuous with a strong commitment to always doing the right thing. You have touched the lives of so many in your family, friends, community and church. And while your presence here will be so very missed, I know you are in a better place surrounded by your loved ones, eating well and dressed to the nines.  
I love you abuela. 
❤️Lissa
