In 1949 Herb Schop swept her off her feet and into his arms and they wed in November of 1949. Gladys was an active member of the St. David’s Anglican Church being in the choir and a volunteer at Mont St. Joseph Nursing Home both for over 20 years. She chose to become a full time mother and homemaker which was her passion, after the arrival of their first child David, soon followed by Debbie and Cathy. She also took excellent care of her parents in their old age. Her husband, family and her beloved grandchildren meant everything to her. Her achievements were measured by the love and closeness of her family. They enjoyed time at their cottage at Neis Beach, Emma Lake, Little Red River Park and various trips to Winnipeg, Saskatoon, Calgary and BC to visit family. It is the family’s request that those wishing to place memorials may do so to the Herb Bassett Nursing Home. Family and friends may send email condolences to www.riverparkfuneral.ca.
