In her spare time, Gloria enjoyed a Friday night with her family at home playing poker. She enjoyed jigsaw puzzles, colouring and knitting. Slippers and baby blankets were her niche. She was always on the phone and loved to talk to her friends and family. She was adamant that her family understand the benefits of a good education and would diligently work with each and every one to ensure that they made the most of their time in school. Gloria was an avid fan of the Maccan Royals Baseball Team, as many of her brothers and other family members had played on it. She loved being surrounded by her family for weekly Sunday dinners, and enjoying a lobster on Mother's Day.
