Gloria was my mom’s high school and college classmate, and lifelong friend. So many wonderful memories of spending time with Gloria, her mother, and her children. May her legacy, her life and her good works in the church and the community be eternal. Our family sends our love and deepest condolences to Venita.

My condolences to the family. She was a very classy lady and she helped a lot of folks while working at Angelina College. Earth hath no sorrow heaven cannot heal.





I met Gloria Gilder over twenty years ago ushering in the Southeast Texas Region Annual Conference. She had a strong love for God and serving His people as a devoted Doorkeeper. Time allowed our "church" relationship to grow into a personal friendship. I will miss Gloria Glider, my ushering buddy and friend.
