Gladys Brewer, was born on May 26, 1928 in Millville, New Jersey and passed away peacefully at the age of 92 in her sleep, at her home in Reedley, CA on Sunday, August 9, 2020. Her parents, Augustus and Edna (James) Meerwald lived in Millville, NJ until 1935. Augustus owned and Captained the AJ Meerwald, an Oyster Schooner. When the Oyster business collapsed due to the economy and an oyster disease, the family purchased a home and Chicken Farm in Cape May County. Edna became an Elementary School Teacher. The AJ Meerwald Schooner was sunk and forgotten. In 1989 it was rediscovered and donated to the Schooner Project and completely restored. It is now the

Gladys worked at the University of California, Riverside as an Executive Secretary for the Chairman of the Citrus Experiment Station from 1954 – 1957. Gladys went back to school in the late 1960’s and completed a Degree from Loma Linda University in Education. With their extended family still in New Jersey, cross country road trips were a common summer time adventure. These allowed memorable camping experiences, site seeing and visiting family and friends. In 1968 Bob was offered another life changing experience and the entire family moved to Nagoya, Japan for a Research Sabbatical. Upon returning from Japan in 1969, Gladys starting working as a Substitute Teacher in the Riverside County School District.
