In life, Gloria was a beloved wife, Mother, daughter, sister, Grandmother (Mama G), Aunt and friend.

Gloria enjoyed a fulfilling 20 plus year career in the medical administrative field. Most recently, she worked with the H&R Block tax office as an Associate Team Leader. She was dedicated to her work and found great satisfaction in her professional accomplishments.

Her greatest accomplishment in life was that of being a Mom and Grandmother. She loved and cherished her sons and their children with her amazing heart of gold.

Gloria is survived by her sons Charles E. Wright, Jr. and his children Emily A. Wright and Nicholas A. Moffatt; Chad M. Wright and his children Abigail N. Helton-Wright & son Daniel; and Kye P. Helton. She is also survived by her sister Johnie O. Adams; daughter in law, Jennifer A. Wright; cousin D.

Gloria was preceded in death by her Husband Charles (Gutty) E. Wright, Sr. and Parents John E. and Louise M. Adams, in addition to sister Mildred L. Adams.

Gloria was a member of the Lawrenceville First United Methodist Church, where she found solace & strength in her faith.

We will always hold Gloria within our hearts and souls. She will be greatly and deeply missed by her family and friends. Her memory will forever be treasured in our hearts. If she could speak to us today, she would say that today and tomorrow is not promised. Be kind always; love and care deeply for each other. Never forget to say the words “love you”; and “love you more” often.

Gloria found peace and comfort in the hymn You Raise Me Up.

“When I am down and, oh my soul so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then I am still and wait here in the silence
Until You come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be

You raised me up to more than I can be”

At her request, no formal service is planned at this time. Her family will take this time to grieve privately; and, will plan a Celebration of Life in her memory at a later date.
