I will always remember Aunt Gladys as one of the kindest, most knowledgeable, gracious ladies I've ever known. She was a strong bond in our family. She made every visit a most enjoyable memory. She will live in my heart always, I will miss you Aunt "G", until we meet again.

In all charity I tell you: do not pray for her. Pray to her, for God has given us a patron saint.

Gladys, our friend, simply said was the BEST! The Villas will never be the same again for us. She befriended us 13 years ago and we have remained such since then. She'll not be forgotten.

Our sympathy to y'all. Try to hold onto what seemed to be true to us. She was a happy Lady.

God bless and keep, Hope and Jay Herr

Gladys (and the entire Maladowitz family) was like an extension of our family. Whenever we visited Snee Farm to see my parents (Al & Irene Flynn) we were always sure to see Gladys and spend time with her to catch up on the latest. We loved that time with her and looked forward to seeing her when we were there. We will certainly miss her. Lynne, Mark, Leslie (and all your families) and we send our deepest condolences to you.

Love,

Steve, Gail, Georgia and Troy Flynn

I got to know Gladys when living in the Villas. She always had a smile for everyone and worked so passionately for the Snee Farm Garden Club. I enjoyed working beside her and especially enjoyed going to the pool with her and our grandchildren. I last saw Gladys two years ago when I got to visit all my friends in SC. She will be greatly missed and may she rest in peace. My sympathy to all her children and grandchildren.

Gladys was always our enthusiastic personal guide when we made our trips to Mount Pleasant and Charleston to visit Mom & Dad (Irene & Allan Flynn). From fun things to do for us grownups such as house tours, restaurants and beach house rentals to fun for the kids, she was a fountain of knowledge. Her love of life and fun, quick smile, welcome advice and graciousness will long be remembered!
Our deepest sympathies go out to all of you. May God Bless and Keep you-
Love, Mary & Mike Flynn
