Gladys Hatcher

I worked with Gladys for about 4 years at East Heights United Methodist Church. She always amazed me with her love and compassion she had for children. The children felt so comfortable with her, and she was always willing to do anything for them. Whether that meant comforting a crying child, singing to them, withstanding the cold or heat for them to play outside, or getting down on the floor to play with the kids. She would do anything for them. I had so much fun working with Gladys. I always had a connection with her, and we both shared the same philosophy and passion for children.

Ronnie and Susie, I’m so sorry to hear of your mother’s death. I’ve thought about your family many times throughout the years -remembering all the happy times we shared as next-door neighbors during our early growing-up years. Your mother was such a kind, caring lady.
