DENNIS – Long time Dennis resident, Gloria B. (Leonard) Packard 93, passed away on March 4, 2020 in her home at Northside Village in Dennis while lovingly surrounded by family.

 

Gloria was predeceased by her WWII veteran husband, Russell Packard, her sister, Mildred Harding, her brother, Russell Leonard, and her son-in-law, Fred Johnson.

 

Gloria and her late husband, Russ are survived by daughter, Paulette Packard Johnson of Smyrna, TN, son, Kenneth and his, wife Patricia Packard of Lakeville,  daughter, Deidre and her husband, Barry Schofield of Brewster, and daughter, Jennifer and her husband, Thomas Morris of Moncks Corner, SC.  She is also survived by; nine grandchildren, Adam Johnson of Smyrna, TN,  Victoria and her husband, Carl Sams of Murfreesboro, TN, Jesse and his new bride, Casey (Sandorf) Johnson of Goodlettsville, TN, Mark Packard of Florissant, CO,  Heather Pinargote (and great-granddaughter, Seleine) of Brewster, Aubrey and her husband, Dr. Matthew Petersile of Westborough, Joshua Schofield of Brewster, Cameron Bauer of Harwich, and Collin Bauer of Moncks Corner, SC.

 

Affectionately known as Glo, she and Russ moved from Brockton to the Mid-Cape area 1949, finally settling in Dennis in 1960.  A well-loved and funny lady of many talents, Glo was a sought after and gifted knitter.  Highly creative, her talents included painting, sewing, ceramics, quilting,  needlepoint, cake decorating, floral arranging, and hospitality: her home on Old Bass River Road always provided a warm welcome with plenty of hot coffee, where friends and family would constantly drop in for conversation and whatever had just come out of the oven.  If visitors were lucky, they’d find her freshly baked brownies or peanut butter cookies.

 

Relatives and friends are invited to call at the Hallett Funeral Home, 273 Station Ave.,

South Yarmouth, MA on Monday, March 9, 2020 from 11:00 to 1:00 P.M.  There will

be a brief service at 12:30 P.M.  Interment will be private.

To Dee Dee and other family, Please accept my deepest sympathy on the passing of your mom. Gloria was a wonderful friend to my Mom, Terry at Northside. They had so many laughs, good times and lots of adventures. She was so kind and had so much love to share with others. May your fond memories help you all through this difficult time. Love, Larry & Christine
