To the children and grandchildren of Glady… Glady was my first cousin. I am Walter’s daughter – Beth’s sister! Your mom was enough older than I was to be that cousin that I loved to be around. When I was about age 6, Hanson family members were gathered near Rhinelander Wisconsin for a reunion of sorts. Your mom and Georetta, Murriel June and Mary Jane Martinka, and Margaret Anne and Mary Beth went to a movie together. I don’t remember who drove us into Rhinelander from the resort that my mom’s parents owned, but I know that Uncle George came to pick us up after the movie. We drove home through a tornado – not knowing what else to do, Uncle George kept driving the 8 miles back to Woodboro, where the resort and the rest of the family was. There were many family times after that, but probably none quite so dangerous while we were all together. I always thought your mom was beautiful – physically and as a person. I know she will be missed, but I also know her suffering is over. Love, Margaret Hanson Derksen
Gary, Julie, Joanette, Eddie and Elizabeth, I can’t begin to tell you how sad I am over the death of your mother. So many wonderful memories came flooding back and it seems as if a part of an era has gone, which it has. All of you and your families will be in my thoughts and prayers in the days ahead . With sympathy and lots of love and hugs to every one of you. Mrs. Benson aka Scotty
We are so very sorry for your loss. Glady will be missed by many. She was such a fun cousin to be around and dearly loved.
My condolences to the family!! Gladys and I have been friends for many many years through the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League. She was a wonderful person — always had a smile and Jesus in her heart. I will miss seeing her at LWML activities….but I know she is at peace with our Lord. May the Lord comfort you in your loss and may memories keep Gladys in your heart forever.
Purple, hugs, laughter and sharing were characteristics that Gladys held whenever we met at an LWML event. She is now with her Lord and Savior, who she knew loved, worshipped and served. God’s comfort and peace to her family who she loved dearly. Marge Bruning
Our sympathy to the entire Hane family. Gladys was a dear neighbor for many years and a kind, welcoming, and smiling face whenever we saw each other. Our prayers go out to you all. Alison and Warren Mullison
Condolences from Kimbery Harner Haggerty, and family. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. It was nice seeing Gladys while we were selling the Harner house, two doors down.
I would like to extend our heartfelt sympathy to Gladys Hanes’ family. Our prayers are with you at this time . I attended St. Paul’s weekly Bible class on Monday afternoons and Gladys was the leader of our class. She enjoyed sharing her lovely stories of her life and loved ones as we often spent some time before class chatting about our families! We had a great time learning scripture, sharing our faith, and bonding in Christian fellowship. There was always a smile and kind word from her to our grandchildren, or to me whenever we met at class , Preschool meetings or at service. She was a lover of children and taught my grandson in Sunday School. All the children loved Ms Gladys! She will be greatly missed by us all. Geraine Armstrong and family
For many of us who had the privilege of calling Gladys a friend, our first thoughts were that she was free from pain and with the Lord that she so dearly loved. Upon further reflection I will remember her smile, her laugh, her hugs and her sparkle. Most of all, I will remember how proud she was of her family. She rejoiced in the blessings bestowed upon each of you. May you continue to carry the love that she had for each of you in your hearts. Susan Irwin
Altar flowers will be in St. Paul’s Sanctuary on Sunday, June 6 in memory of Gladys and in appreciation for all of the work that she did on behalf of St. Paul’s LWML. We will make a contribution in her name at a later date. We will let the family know when a decision has been made. We will miss our dear friend. The ladies of St. Paul’s LWML
I just learned of Gladys’ passing. To the many family members I send my sincere condolences. As Marge Bruning stated, “Purple, hugs, laughter and sharing were characteristics that Gladys held whenever we met at an LWML event” is so true. I knew Gladys through St. Paul’s and LWML. Altho I lost touch with her in recent years she was never far from my mind. Such a sweet gentle lady full of the Spirit. I will truely miss her. May you all feel comforted by the memories you have of her. Blessings and sympathies to all, Sue
I was so very saddened to hear of Gladys’ death. She was a frequent visitor to The Attic in The Virginian, where I used to work, and we passed many lovely hours chatting together. Her Christmas tree always brightened the 4th floor. My sincere condolences to the family Susan O’Neill
