To the family of Gloria Harris: I am sorry to hear about your mother's passing. She was truly a good friend. We shared good times and bad times together over our 25 years of knowing each other. Gloria trained me to help educate my children through the HIPPY Program so they would be good students when they started school. Now my children are 28 and 24 and they graduated from school. Our families visited each other a lot and supported each other in various events. I am praying for the family. I am here when you need me.
