Gloria J. (Conrad) Cresswell, 83, of Milton, passed away peacefully on Friday October 17, 2025.
Born on October 30, 1941 in Pottsville, she was the daughter of the late Gerald and Geraldine (Harron) Conrad. Gloria was a 1959 graduate of Blue Mountain High School.
Gloria and her husband, Gerry, both agreed they fell in love at first sight. They were married for 60 years renewing their vows in January of 2020 just before Gerry's passing on January 26, 2020. Together they had raised four children: Lynne (Dan), Terry (Carmen), Tim (Lise), and Jodi (Greg); 10 grandchildren and 9 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by five siblings.
Gloria was a member of Lewisburg Chapter 394 Order of Eastern Star. Her hobbies included reading, writing, crafts, baking, collecting post cards, sending cards, and creating care packages for others. She loved going to the cabin with her family on the weekends and hosting company often. Her home was always open to others and fun was had by all.
A celebration of life for both Gloria and Gerry will be held on November 29 at Christ Weslyan Church in Milton with visitation from 10-11 am with a service beginning at 11:00 am. Friends and family are invited to gather afterwards for a reception in the church hall.
Donations in lieu of flowers can be made to the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) P.O. Box 676910, Dallas, Texas, 75267
Gloria was beautiful inside and out and will be missed dearly.
