I am so very sorry to hear of your Mom/Grandmother's passing. I truly enjoyed seeing the beautiful pictures of her your loving family. I know how important she was to each of you. Your Christmas Eve gatherings are very similar to those that I grew up with and following my Grandmother's passing we have continued to celebrate with our extended family each year since. I know that you will do the same and feel the presence of her love in all of your fond and loving memories of moments spent with such a special lady. Thinking of you all with my deepest sympathies. xo Pam Ryan

To the Landers Family ~

My heartfelt condolences on Gloria’s passing. My husband Fran and I truly enjoyed visiting with her during Uncle Bob’s Sunday morning coffees with all the Cirillo/Marini cousins. She was so sweet, always wearing bright beautiful smile. I’m sure she is joining Fran, his dad Frank, Millie and Larry for coffee and fried dough as they watch over us all. It was my good fortune to have known such a special lady. May God Bless you all with strength and peace as your memories help to ease your sorrow.

Merry Marini

To the Landers Family

Gloria was one of the most caring, sweetest and loving people I have met. When my parents passed, Mom was at the front door offering of herself to do anything we needed, especially when our mother Rose passed. She was there for us and it's something I'll never forget.

On a lighter note, I'm a football official and I've had all the Landers & Porter boys throughout their football careers playing for the "Green Wave". Before every game, and I don't know how she did it, she would "gently" remind me that there will be NO penalties called on "her babies" that game. What grandmother would do that, only Gloria!!

The Callinan's express our deepest sympathy to all the Landers family & extended family.

My sincerest condolences to Gloria’s entire family. I was lucky enough to get to know Gloria a little bit over the past 5 years or so at Bob Marini’s Sunday morning gatherings. She was truly one the sweetest people I have ever had the pleasure to get to know. Gloria will be sorely missed! A wonderful woman.

I am a long time friend of Gloria's sister Barbara. We always said Gloria would live to be 100 as she was always in such "good shape". She loved her family and cooking for all.
So sorry for her unfortunate fall, and extending my sincere sympathy to the whole family.
