She was also preceded in death by her brother, Otis Etier and her sister, Mary Etier Heath. She is survived by her cousins, Mary Ann Jones of Waco, T.S. Williams of Dallas and Jack N. Williams of Baton Rouge La. The family would like to express special thanks to Blanco Farmer for all her help and loving care to Gladys over the years.
