I met Gilda through the Shrine and if I were to describe her in one word, it would be powerhouse. She was a strong, vibrant woman and the Shrine exists today because all she did for it. I will miss this dear lady so very much. May fond memories help you through your time of grief and may the Spirit of the Lord comfort you. Anna Novotny
