Take the wheel. It's your turn to drive.
As a mother of three, Gloria kept busy with Little League, Girl Scouts, and various after school events. While her husband worked for the public schools, her children attended Catholic school. They went on to college, married their sweethearts, and had their own children. Gloria and David moved to Texas in 2008 because her sister (Lillian) lives in Central Texas. When David was diagnosed with cancer, they moved to Florida where they heard one of the best surgeons was located. They shared over 60 years of marriage. After his passing, she decided to move back to Texas to be closer to her children and sister. |

Gloria learned of the services of Faith in Action through Meals on Wheels. "She said to me You don’t drive do you. I said, no I don’t. I used to. She gave me all the literature and telephone numbers. The first time I called, she said oh yes, we would be happy (to serve you). She said we will come and pick you up and take you to doctors or wherever you have to go. I thought it was Heaven on Wheels. From that time on I have made the acquaintance of such wonderful people who drive. Just, they couldn’t be nicer, and they make you feel right at home. That was just perfect. ” |
