St. George, Utah
- Our mother, grandmother, and friend. Gladys was born to John and Marie Greene on August 26, 1953 in Maine. She passed away peacefully in her sleep on January 5, 2018 in St. George, UT. Gladys left us to return home to God; Dale, the love of her life and who she was married to for 36 years; and her daughter, Wendy. She was a light and a joy to anyone who entered her life, she was the one person who taught so many of us that love and family was not just blood. She welcomed anyone into her home and anyone who needed a friend or a helping hand into her life, she had a love for traveling, quilting, and a huge love for anything on stage in a theater. There was not a time that she would miss a night out with the girls, or going out just to read for a while, taking quilting trips, to playing bingo for hours in mesquite. Her dear friend Jackie Diemer was and is a huge part of the happiness Gladys had up to her last day. Gladys had a love of many things and for many people, she was always very proud to talk about her son Tyler, her granddaughter Hailey, she loved spending time with family and friends from Salt Lake City, to St. George, and she would often talk about family, and memories she had as a child in Canada. She will be dearly missed by so many, but kept alive by the legacy she leaves behind.
Gladys is preceded in death by her grandparents; parents; husband, Dale; and daughter, Wendy. She is survived by her son Tyler; granddaughter Hailey; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, in-laws, and adopted family.
