My good friend Kacey on her 26th birthday.

July 2022

When Gloria Balian Passed away on July 18, 2016, my father and I (her son and grandson) thought it would be important to tell the story of her life before she moved to California to marry her husband. Gloria lived a beautiful life with her family in California, but very few people know her story before coming here.
