Gladys Emma Schmid, 97, passed away on June 2, 2016. She was born on July 22, 1918, in Monticello, WI, to Wilbert and Ida Hoesly.

She was preceded in death by her husband of 50 years, Walter Schmid.

She and Walter left Wisconsin and moved to California, eventually making their way to the Eastern Sierra. Gladys worked many jobs but some of her more memorable ones were when she worked at the June Lake General Store from 1953-1965, then in 1966 she and Walter bought and owned and operated the Crowley Lake Store until 1973 when they decided to settle in Bishop.

Gladys loved the outdoors, and traveling across country. She and Walter were long time members of the Bishop Golf Club where she golfed until the age of 88. She joined the Lady Bills of the Elks Lodge 1603 in 1974.

She is survived by her sister and brother-in-law, Marian and Delmar Kubly of Wisconsin; nephew, Kris (Penny) Kubly and family of Wisconsin; longtime friend, Cindy (Hugh) Henderson and family of Bishop; and a host of friends.

We will miss her wonderful smile and sense of humor, as well as her spunkiness.  Per her request there will be no services. She will be remembered always and dearly missed.
