Gloria Leal Lopez

Gloria Leal-Lopez from Bryan, TX, went to heaven to be with our Lord on March 30, 2017
She was born in Monterrey, Mexico on March 11, 1933, to Juanita and Eduardo Leal. Gloria was preceded in death by her parents and three brothers.
Gloria is survived by her husband of 66 years, Emilio R. Lopez, Sr. from Bryan, TX; her brother, Mario Leal and his wife, Elena, from Monterrey, Mexico; her daughter, Dora Galvan and her husband, David, from Austin, TX; her son, Emilio Lopez, Jr. and his wife Mary Ann from Bryan, TX; her son, Roy Edward Lopez and his wife, Mayela, from College Station, TX; 8 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
Gloria and Emilio moved from Monterrey, Mexico to Bryan in 1955. In 1972, Gloria and Emilio realized a life-long dream of owning a business when they opened the West 25th Laundry and Dry Cleaners in Bryan. In 2016, they were honored by receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Bryan/College Station Hispanic Forum for their entrepreneurship and outstanding contributions to the Bryan/College Station community.
Gloria began her gallant struggle when she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in 2006. Her courage, determination, and faith in God has been an example to all who knew her.
She was blessed with a large support group of friends, and the Lopez family is eternally grateful for the demonstrations of love and encouragement they received. The Lopez family would also like to express their thanks and gratitude to all her medical care givers, the staff of the Davita Dialysis Center in Bryan, and the staff at the Hospice Brazos Valley Inpatient Facility.
Gloria’s Visitation will be held on Saturday April 1, 2017 from 6-8 PM with a Rosary at 7 PM at Hillier Funeral Home of Bryan. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated by Father Abraham Puentez Mejia on Sunday April 2, 2017, 4 PM at Santa Teresa Catholic Church, 1212 Lucky Street in Bryan. Burial will follow at Restever Memorial Park.
