Obituary for Loretta G. Gaugler (Wlock)
Loretta J. (Wlock) Gaugler, 85, of Barto, passed away on March 14, 2020 at Amity Place in Douglassville, Pa. She was the loving wife of Harvey F. Gaugler, sharing 62 years of marriage before his passing in February of 2018.
Born in Bridgeport, PA on January 25, 1935, she was the daughter of the late Michael and Catherine (Adams) Wlock.

In Loretta’s spare time, you could find her in her garden tending to all of her flowers and in her kitchen baking
or cooking something good. She also enjoyed traveling and most importantly, spending time with her family.
Surviving are her four children, Harvey M. Gaugler, Greg S. Gaugler and wife, Carol, Ken W. Gaugler and wife, April and Karen L. Onushco and husband, Jim; 7 grandchildren, Jennifer, Tammy, Daniel, Jarred, Ryan, Dylan and Erin, and 10 great grandchildren; and her four sisters, Joan Ornsby, Lorraine Pickell, Kathleen SanFelice, and Barbara Szablowski.
In addition to husband and parents, she is predeceased by three sisters, Jane Wlock, Dolores Baldassano; and her three brothers, Richard, Francis and Robert Wlock.
Due to the updated recommendation from the CDC, Mrs. Gaugler's service will be private to immediate family only. A celebration of life will be announced at a later date. Please offer condolences at www.mannslonakerfuneralhome.com.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in her memory to the American Parkinson’s Disease Association at www.apdaparkinson.org.
