Gladys will be remembered for her beautiful, caring nature and bright smile. She took great pride in caring for others whether it be her grandchildren, great grandchildren or the residents she looked after at the Estevan Regional Nursing Home where she worked for 25 years. After her retirement she enjoyed Bingo, playing cards and the odd trip to the casino. She also loved to bake for her family and we always looked forward to seeing what she had made for us every week. In August 2010 she moved to the Creighton Lodge where she continued to enjoy life. Bingo and choir practice were highlights of her week. She loved her home at the Creighton Lodge and all the many friends that she had there. In July 2013 she moved to Mainprize Manor in Midale where she resided until her passing. Gladys taught us all to live by the Golden Rule. Her smile and gentle guidance will be greatly missed and cherished by us all.

Interment will take place at Souris Valley Memorial Gardens, Estevan, at a later date.
