Gloria Jeanne Chrysler
January 9, 1926 – February 11, 2020
Gloria Jeanne Chrysler passed away on February 11, 2020, in Sun City Center, FL. She died of natural causes. She had just celebrated her 94th birthday. Gloria was born in Joplin, Missouri on January 9, 1926, to Nina Rae and Claude W. Chrysler. Gloria attended Central High School in Oklahoma City, graduating in 1944. Gloria met her future husband, Ivan Caneen at a USO dance prior to his departure to England where he served with the 8th Air Force as a B-17 waist gunner. They were married in Oklahoma City on October 31, 1944.
Gloria worked as a school secretary at Dixon JHS in Provo, Utah. She retired from that job in 1988. After retirement, the couple had a lot of fun with their Good Sam camping club in Provo. They liked to travel and covered many miles all over the United States, Canada and Mexico in their RV. They also took trips to both Europe and New Zealand.
Gloria was preceded in death by her husband Ivan Caneen, mother Nina Rae Chrysler, father Claude Walter Chrysler, brother Donald Chrysler and grandson Patrick Caneen. She is survived by two half-sisters Dwayne and Joanne, her sons Steve Caneen (Debbie), Jeffery Caneen (Jan) and daughter Nancy Roginski (Richard) also six grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. She was anxious to reunite with her family “on the other side,” and her best life-long friends, Maria Fort and Ann Conrad.
The family would like to thank the staff of Sun Towers, Sun Terrace and Sun City Center Hospice House in Sun City Center, FL, for the care they provided Gloria.
There will be a private viewing, but we welcome all friends to attend the graveside services at 1 p.m. on Saturday, February 22, 2020 at American Fork City Cemetery (26 West 600 North), Utah.
