Gloria was married to her devoted husband, Roger, for over 50 years. They spent their retirement years tending their certified organic farm in Campton Hills. Prior homes included Wheaton and Bellwood, IL.

Her loving children are: Edward (Donna) Murphy of Benton, Louisiana; Carol (David Senneke) Plating of Oswego, Illinois; Martin (Pamela) Murphy of Ashville, North Carolina; and Maureen (Bill Harper) Lindhorst of Villa Park, Illinois.

The oldest of three sisters, Gloria will be missed by her sibling, Sister Mary Anne Mupo of Edgerton, Wisconsin, her cousin, Rosalie (Bill) McCormick of Holland, Michigan, and many nieces and nephews.

Gloria attended DePaul University and shared her abilities in a variety of jobs before retiring from a management position with Illinois Bell. In addition to her work on their farm, Gloria and her loving husband, Roger, were active in their parish church Ss Peter & Paul, and shared their gifts with many. She was a hard-working, multi-talented woman who excelled as a cook, baker, musician, artist, seamstress, and a variety of creative projects. She was generous with her time, talents and her organizational skills. Yet with all her interests and activities, the love and care of her family were her highest priorities and her greatest treasures. Gloria Angela Martin is a treasure and will be missed by all who love her.
