In Memory of
GLENDA F. TADDEO
1946 – 2020
Glenda F. Taddeo of Aurora Colorado passed peacefully in her sleep at home, July 10, 2020. She was born in Modesto, California, May 6, 1946 to Charles and Sue Wagner. Glenda's family moved to Colorado Springs in 1948, where she lived until 1977 when she moved to the Denver Metro area and married the love of her life Gary.
Glenda graduated from Harrison High School, then attended Blair Business College in Colorado Springs. She began her career in accounting, then expanded working with computers. Accounting and computers helped her land her dream job with Applied Systems, teaching insurance accounting computer systems. Glenda traveled all over the US. She was blessed to have the opportunity to meet people, enjoy new cultures and cuisine. Although it was suggested by one of her teachers that she would not be good at teaching, she was very successful. Do what you love as she said.
Glenda enjoyed gatherings of family and friends, big and small, cooking for all, her motto a recipe was just a guideline … food was always wonderful. One of her great disappointments she had to give up golf due to hip problems, the game, the socializing and of course sharing food, conversation and drinks after.
She was loved by all who had the fortune to know her.
She is survived by her husband Gary Taddeo, sister Deborah Liska, son Anthony Taddeo, daughter-in-law Ann Taddeo, stepfather Charles Couch, grandchildren Faith, Patrick and Paul, sister-in-law Christine Taddeo … nieces and nephews and many friends too numerous to mention.
