JONESPORT – Gloria M. Floyd, a lifetime resident of Washington County, passed away at the age of 85 on Friday, December 7, 2012, in Milbridge, surrounded by family
Gloria was born February 5, 1927, in Jonesport to Lewis and Sybil (Fickett) Beal. She grew up in Jonesport and was a graduate of the Jonesport High School class of 1944. After graduation, Gloria worked in the offices of Charlie Stevens Sardine Factory. However, she preferred nurturing and caring for her family as a wife and mother. In addition to teaching the practical life lessons: keeping ones hands to oneself, crocheting, and homework, Gloria set the example of the importance of simply spending time with family. Every holiday, birthday, or other event was sure to call the family together to celebrate with cake and ice cream.

In her free time, she enjoyed sharing her favorite game, Beano, with others.
