Gloria Marie Van Zandt, 87, passed away on September 3, 2022 in Dallas TX. She was born on April 10, 1935 to Oscar and Edna Bond. She retired from Willow Distributing Company as an Accountant and managed the family owned business, Van Zandt Pickups, until her passing. She was a hard worker and would do anything to help someone. Gloria loved her toy poodle Reggie, that was her baby. She was a member of Beacon Hill Baptist Church and she loved her family and friends and consistently prayed for them all. She enjoyed eating out, working cross word puzzles, and watching the Hallmark channels. She loved hosting all Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays at her home. She was the Matriarch of our family and our hearts ache, but it gives us peace knowing she's with her Lord and Savior. She told us in her last days she was ready as her body was weak and tired.
