Gloria was born into the Patterson family, who were early settlers in the community of Celeste in northern Hunt County, Texas.
She married Eddie Frank Skidmore, and they lived in Garland, Texas. He passed away on Thanksgiving Day, 1958 as the result of an auto accident in McKinney, Texas, where his parents lived. They had no children.
Later she married Haley D. Green and they had one son, Kyle, who preceded Gloria in death.
Gloria was employed by Texas Instruments in Dallas for many years until her retirement.
She passed away after a long battle with lung cancer. She is survived by her brother James Patterson and sister-in-law Mary Lynn Patterson of Greenville, Texas, and three nieces; Tracie Patterson Bjorkgren, Page Patterson Barker, and Jamie Patterson Cox.
"Do not stand at my grave and weep... I am not there, I do not sleep,
I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sun on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awake in the morning hush, I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight, I am the stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,.. I am not there, I did not die." -Mary Frye 1932
