Where she still held the treasure position when she got ill mid March of this year. Gladys could match any chef with her cooking. As the children grew, they brought home friends and finally their families. The table set 3 or 4 times as we all got fed. She ate after everyone else was served. Nans Sunday dinners will be forever missed. Glady loved fun, she loved her Saturday night darts, her Tuesday night bingos, and she was ready for a game of crib anytime. The stories she told of her growing up, the mischievous fun ways she carried all her life, attracted all people young and old. Glady and Clayton loved fun, music, dancing, their highlight of the year was their fall moose hunting trips that took them all around the province camping.
