I am very sad to hear of Gladys' passing. Ralph, Mark & Kevin you are in my thoughts and prayers! She was a STRONG, independent, caring and courageous person. A true role model!! Even though it was over 20 years ago that I worked for you, fate would have it that we'd run into each other every so often. I have very fond memories of that time and will never forget the mentorship, guidance and friendship Gladys gave me. Gladys was truly the Queen of the Dairy Queen I knew.

This is such sad news and I am so so sorry to hear of Gladys’ passing. I have many fond memories of working with Gladys at Dairy Queen - I spent over 6 years as one of Ralph and Gladys’ employees. What a beautiful soul she was! We had many laughs together over subjects. She was supportive and it was evident just how much her family meant to her. Ralph, Mark & Carrie, Kevin & Jen and family, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Gladys certainly left a mark in my heart and although it has been many years, she will not be forgotten. Xo

Derek, Lynne and I were so sorry to learn of Gladys' passing. She was a huge part of my childhood, and Lynne's and a good and longtime friend to my parents, Derek and Annette. Her laugh, her humour and her independent spirit are indelibly marked on our memories. She was a force of nature and will not be forgotten! Our deepest condolences to everyone in the family, our thoughts are with you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Ralph, Kevin, and Mark at this difficult time. Gladys was a wonderful mother so it is no surprise that she loved her grandchildren. We are so pleased that she and Ralph had time to enjoy cruising. We love it also.
