Obituary:
Gloria L. Maffett, 82, of Orlando departed this life on Saturday, November 8, 2025. Gloria was born March 9, 1943 in Yonges Island, SC to the late Josephine S. and Henry L. Geddis Sr. She was a woman who radiated love, kindness, and faith in everything she did. Gloria was deeply devoted to the Lord, and her unwavering faith was the foundation of her life. She was a devoted and active member of River of Life Christian Center, Orlando, serving in whatever capacity was needed. She was a dedicated prayer warrior for her family and friends, always lifting them up in prayer and seeking God’s guidance and peace for those she loved. Her family was the center of her world, and she poured her heart and soul into caring for and supporting them.
Gloria had a deep love for children and worked as a counselor, for both private and public schools, for several years.
Her gentle spirit, infectious smile, and warm hugs brightened the lives of all who knew her. Whether it was through her laughter or her ability to make everyone feel loved, Gloria left an indelible mark on those around her. She had an amazing ability to find joy in the simplest moments, and her presence was a gift to all who had the honor of knowing her. Gloria loved life, loved people, and loved God with all her heart. Her legacy of love, faith, and joy will continue to live on in the hearts of her family and friends. Her family, friends, and all who were blessed to know her will forever miss her radiant presence and the love she gave so freely.
Gloria is survived by her 2 children, Kristi (Norris Smith) Brown, Juan (Kimberly) Ladson; 4 grandchildren; and a host of other loving relatives and many friends.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life’s routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Please know that your loved one is safe in God’s memory. John 5:28, 29.
My condolences to her family and friends. We attended high school together at Baptist Hill High School during the late 1950s. May she rest in peace.
