Glo was predeceased by her brother, Richard L’Heureux; and their parents, Roland A. and Ingrid (Danielson) L’Heureux.
Glo was born, raised, and educated in Worcester – she then worked, for several years, for Heald Machine Company, where she met her beloved Henry. The pair were married, and began raising their family together in Rutland and Shrewsbury.
In her free time, Glo loved playing piano, so much so that she dedicated her time to teaching others the beautiful instrument. She even wrote her own music, including a lovely song dedicated to her late husband, “Memories of You.” Glo also enjoyed oil painting.
She was a woman of great faith.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Glo’s name to the Alzheimer’s Association (www.alz.org/donate).
