Gloria was a loving and caring mother and sister and adored her grandchildren. Christmas Eve will never be the same without her gumbo and potato salad.
Survivors include two sons, Richard Miller and his wife, Kristy, of Baton Rouge and Jeffrey Miller and his wife, Shanna, of Lafayette; two sisters, Joyce Fruge and her husband, Clyde, of Eunice and Dee Smith and her husband, David, of Lake Charles; five grandchildren, Bryce Miller of Baton Rouge, and Kaitlyn, Whitney, Hannah, and Brennan Miller of Lafayette; and seven nieces and nephews.
