Obituary of Gloria Loreen King

Gloria Loreen King, 80, of West Melbourne, Florida passed from this world on April 11, 2021 at William Childs Hospice, Palm Bay, Florida.

Gloria was born in Philadelphia, PA on January 25, 1941 to Herbert Eugene King and Sarah (Ferdman) Mower.  Gloria spent her first 53 years in Philadelphia, working and raising a family and moved to the Indialantic – Melbourne area in 1994.

Gloria worked many positions over the years, in retail and business offices, but was known best as our favorite Avon Consultant and her last business venture here in the Melbourne area was as Pet Sitter extraordinaire.

Gloria spent her life in dedication to her family and numerous friends; there was nothing more important to her. Her favorite memories were of the many family get togethers for holidays and events, traveling, going to the grand kids sporting events & special occasions and local involvement with animal rescue groups.

Gloria was preceded in death by her ex-husband Barry J. Swartz and her daughter Susan M. (Swartz) Badolato.  She is survived by her son Michael S. Swartz, grandsons, Matthew, Michael and Christopher, and great-grand daughter Savannah Badolato, and nieces and nephews.
