#### A GOOD GOD FEARING WOMAN GOES TO HER ETERNAL REWARD

    (Gloria was a fine decent woman who loved and lived her Catholic faith and ferociously fought for her faith and the rights of women. She was a true feminist.  Unlike the phony feminists of today,she fought for women's rights from the womb to the tomb. She was against the greatest domestic violence-abortion-the killing  of baby women in the womb.
     She,and her intrepid band of fighters fought former Bishop McVinney to keep  Bishop Hendricken high school viable when the Bishop wanted to close it down.The Bishop Hendricken community owe a hugh debt of gratitude to Gloria   today for her courage, fortitude,and tenacious defense of her Catholic faith and   its moral teachings and principles.
