Gloria May (Piek) Beck, nee Donnell, age 81, born November 4, 1937 in Norwich, Conn., died Friday, March 22, 2019 in St. Louis.

Gloria retired as Office Manager from Donnell Dental Lab in O'Fallon, Ill. after 25 years. She was happiest when all her kids and grandkids came over to celebrate. They didn't need a reason to get together, they just enjoyed sharing a meal together – as long as Grandma made deviled eggs!

Gloria was preceded in death by her first husband Joseph Piek and her second husband Bob Beck, and her parents John and Annie Donnell.

Surviving are her three children Larry (Angie) Piek of Morrisonville, Ill., Kenneth (Mindi) Piek of Springfield, Ill., and MaryJo (Scott) Gruber of Troy, Ill.; grandchildren Joseph, Aaron, Trey, and Presley Gruber all of Troy, Ill. and Jacob (Kendra) Piek of Bonne Terre, Mo.; great-grandsons Kenneth and Ellik Piek of Bonne Terre; step-son F. Thomas Beck of Columbia, Ill. step-daughters Laura (Kevin) Hettenhausen of Highland, Ill. and Martha Ross of Cahokia, Ill.; brother Thomas (Marylaine) Donnell of O'Fallon, Ill. and many great-nephews, -nieces, and many friends.
