Gloria Dunetz, the mother of founder Rick Dunetz, succumbed to breast cancer Friday August 20th, 2010 in her home in Fairfax, VA.

Gloria was the inspiration behind Side-Out, but more than that, she was a wife, mother, grandmother and friend. She will forever be an example of strength and grace for all those who knew her, and her memory will inspire continued efforts to find a cure for breast cancer.

Not talkin’ ’bout a year
no not three or four
I don’t want that kind of forever
in my life anymore
forever always seems
to be around when it begins
but forever never seems
to be around when it ends
so give me your forever
please your forever
not a day less will do
from you

– Ben Harper from the song Forever
