Gladys worked at many different types of jobs, but she was most known for her years as an LVN at Emanuel Medical Center in Turlock. She would spend 10 years there until her retirement. In her retirement years, she spent her time traveling with her husband, Jack, in their truck and camper. They traveled to many places camping, fishing and spending time with friends and family along the way. Many trips were spent with her best friends, Margaret Beatty, Lola Strong and Bernice Strong. Gladys also enjoyed baking, cooking, canning and entertaining anyone who came to the front door. She was known for her biscuits and gravy from scratch, cheesecake and chocolate torte. She would also be found a lot of times on a phone call with family or friends, especially her cousin Mary Remick. Her home was always open to anyone who needed a place to stay or a good meal to eat.
