Gloria commuted to Halifax by train to attend high school at the Halifax Academy, and later to her job as a secretary at military headquarters. Following the war Gloria moved west to Winnipeg where she was employed by the Hudson's Bay Company. While attending church she met Don, the Love of her life.
