Gloria’s passion in life was her children and grandchildren.

Gloria also had a love of travel and joined the Girlfriends with her best friend Barbara Lineman for many getaway adventures.  

Gloria is survived by her mother Rosemary Wright, Her children Rosemary (Benjamin) Wright, Coreyne (Sandy) Wise, Tei-Eshia (Forest) Thrower, Da’Ondreya Green, and Da’Ondrey Green; William Spencer; Brothers, Thomas Lee (Claudia) Wright; Alphonzo (Linda) Wright, Thomas (Shalease) Wright; Sisters Angela Witherspoon, Dione Carter, Rachel Wright, Catherine Wright, 19 grandchildren. 4 God Children, a host of cousins, nephews, and nieces.
