Gladys was always inspirational to every woman that
she met, and this poem was a part of her collection.

The Successful Woman
The successful woman knows herself well,
and uses her talents wisely.
With warmth in her smile and comfort in her touch,
She lets others know how special they are.
She thinks children are priceless, all nature is precious,
And asks what she can do
To make the world a safer, better place.
The successful woman is not looking for success—
It finds her—
While she is reaching out, touching lives
And sharing herself with others.

Gladys loved her sisters very much. She cherished this
poem that was sent to her in

2004 from Vivian.

S-I-S-T-E-R
SISTER—such a simple word that means so very much…

a little hug, a great big smile, a warm and gentle touch.

SISTER—such a simple word to cover all the ways

she’s helped you out and picked you up, brought sunshine
to your days.

SISTER—such a simple word for someone so dear,

for someone who is cherished even more every year.

SISTER—such a simple word, and yet there is no doubt,

six simple little letters spell what love is ALL about.
