Gloria was born in Combs, Kentucky to Bessie (nee Woods) and Roland Robertson on August 1, 1941. She is the beloved mother of Mike (Sherry) Bishop and Cristy (Ben) Evans; and the cherished grandmother of Courtney (Teddy Baldassarre) Ryan. She was preceded in death by her husband, James Ryan. Gloria loved dogs, especially August, the family dog. She was a homebody and loved her daily to-do list, spending time outside in nature, specifically soaking up the warm summer sun and looking at flowers. Gloria loved listening to audiobooks and was a lifelong listener of Elvis and George Jones. She always looked forward to her after-dinner sweet treat and never turned down a Dr. Pepper. She was small, but mighty and had a spunky personality that made everyone laugh. Her legacy will live on in the hearts of so many who loved her and she will be deeply missed.
