Gloria Jeffrey
April 19, 1938 - December 14, 2020
Gloria Gail Jeffrey, 82, departed this life on December 14, 2020 after a long illness and in the presence of loved ones. She left this world in the same manner in which she lived: with quiet dignity and at peace. She is survived by her husband Larry; sister Carol; sons Mark, Eric, and Brett; grandson Austin; and granddaughter Megan. She is predeceased by her parents Eunice and William McDaniel. As the child of a career Navy father, she lived in many places but ultimately chose Tallahassee as her hometown. She is a graduate of both Leon High School and Florida State University. She taught elementary school in Panama City for several years before marrying and starting a family. She touched numerous children's lives at Creative Preschool, on West Tharpe Street, where she worked for many years and was affectionately known as "Ms. Gail." The Jeffrey family would like to give special thanks to family friend Brenda Austin who was a treasured help in the final days. The family would also like to express their gratitude to Dr. Galt Allee, Dr. Vicki Erwin-Wilson, and Dr. Shelby Blank for their medical expertise and compassionate care. Thanks also to Big Bend Hospice for their kind attentiveness. Graveside services will be held at the family site in Huntington, WV. In lieu of flowers the family requests a donation be made to the Salvation Army.
