Gloria Louise "Red" Sanders

Gloria Louise Sanders, 74, passed away on August 28, 2026. She was born on August 2, 1952.

Gloria will be remembered as a strong-willed woman with a fiery spirit and a love for life. She was always ready for an adventure, and she had a way of making any gathering a blast. Her sense of humor stayed with her always, and she often said funny things that made the people around her laugh.

She showed her love in generous and practical ways. Gloria gave food and a home to anyone who needed it, opening her heart and her door to others. She loved Mickey Mouse and Dr Pepper, and those simple favorites will remain sweet and familiar reminders of her to the people who knew her best.

Above all, Gloria lived for her grandchildren. Her family was at the center of her life, and the love she gave them will continue to be carried forward in the memories they share and the example she set.

Gloria is survived by her daughter, Michelle Lea; her son, Bradley Sanders; and her daughter-in-law, Robin Romero. She is also survived by her grandchildren, Chance Lea (Breanna), Alana Catalanatto, Angelina Harrington and Levi Sanders and a great grandson, Carson Lea;  Shane Freeman, Zoey Freeman and Dakota Freeman. She is also survived by her brother, Jasper David Anglin, sister Martha Jean Smith, numerous aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.  Gloria leaves behind a family who knew her as loving, funny, generous, and full of spirit.

Gloria was preceded in death by her parents Jack Dempsey “JD” Anglin and Mildred Idell Mccullough Anglin, her brother Thomas Van Anglin and her husband Jesse Sanders.

She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who had the blessing of knowing her.
