Her family is her legacy; but she has touched the hearts of everyone she met. “Happy Bum” as she was nick named at Franklin Mfg. brought joy to many with her quick wit. Later she worked at Long Mfg. where she met her husband. While working so many years at Zehrs Market, it wasn’t only her fellow employees that were affected by her loving attitude, but also the many customers that would wait in her line just to check out with her. In retirement she spent many summers at Happy Hills, where she would love to host any family members who could and spend the time. The family will be gathering privately and welcomes your thoughts and prayers as Gladys joins the Angels in heaven.
