- Gloria Shapka of Spruce View passed away on Friday, February 16, 2007 at age 71 after a courageous battle with cancer. Besides her loving husband Harold of 53 years, Gloria is survived by her three children, Dallas (Dean), Janice and Guy (Tammy) and five grandchildren Jordan, Rae-Lee, Jay, Tanner & Teagan. She is also survived by a sister Thelma Burgoyne of Sylvan Lake.
Gloria loved to be outdoors in her garden and her flowers or in the kitchen baking and cooking. These things she mastered for many years. She shared many good times with friends and neighbors in the rodeo community and will be missed by everyone.
Heartfelt thanks to the staff on Unit 32 at the Red Deer Hospital for helping us all through this trying time.
