Gloria Dossett Westmoreland gained her heavenly wings on Saturday, June 21, 2025, surrounded by her loving family at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, MS. She was born on November 19, 1952, to Robert Dossett and Johnnie Mae Andrews Dossett in New Orleans, LA.
Gloria had retired from the Simpson County Board of Supervisors. She loved living in the country and all that it entailed. She enjoyed mowing the grass, picking vegetables, gardening, cooking, and cleaning, as well as antique shopping and drinking Coca-Cola. She thoroughly enjoyed her family and playing with her grandchildren.
Gloria was a wonderful daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, and friend. She had a strong, unbreakable faith, which was evident in her everyday life. If you were her friend, you were blessed. Her family and friends will deeply miss her.
