Gloria Jean Lloyd was born on 17 Sep 1944. Her parents were Forest Harper Lloyd and Mary Jane Brown. Her father was in the armed forces so Gloria was born in the Army Hospital in Brigham City, Utah.

She married Dennis Steven Stokes, also of Baldwin Park. They were married in the Los Angeles Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints on 3 June 1966, returning to Brigham Young University where Dennis graduated.

After graduation, they went to work for the Federal Government, first in Salt Lake City and then in Los Angeles. In 1974 Dennis transferred to Washington, D.C., where they lived in Northern Virginia for 8 years. They returned to southern California in 1981 and went to work at the Navy base in Port Hueneme.

In addition to raising 6 children, Gloria was active in church holding numerous positions in the Women's Relief Society, the Young Women's Organization, and the seminary program of the church. She also worked as an interpretive Specialist for the City of Ventura at the Olivas Adobe historic site.
