Gloria Marie Starr (Sabaj) was born on 12/31/1958, and was born into her spiritual life on 08/17/2023. Gloria was mom to Angie and Fred Palafox and Missy and Jeff Kierkowski, and Gigi to Milo and Max Palafox and Tessa and Chloe Kierkowski; she was also a surrogate Gigi to many of her grandchildren's friends.

To honor her, we will continue to carry on her generous ways and let her live through all of us.
