Gloria G. Cutler's Obituary
GLORIA CUTLER
Age 89, of San Bernardino, CA, passed away at home
surrounded by loved ones after a brief illness. She was the
second of two children born to Herman and May Gainsboro
on December 12, 1929, in Flushing, Long Island, New
York. The family moved to California in 1935 and she
graduated from Woodrow Wilson High School in Long
Beach, CA. After earning a Bachelor's Degree in Business
Administration from USC in 1951, she married Leo Cutler,
and they lived for several years in Los Angeles. They
moved to San Bernardino in 1959, where they owned and
operated Cutler Steel Company-later HCS Cutler-for almost
50 years. She was active in a variety of community
activities; she served as president of Arrowhead Chapter of
Hadassah and Sisterhood of Congregation Emanu El, and
she was the first woman president of Congregation Emanu
El. She also served on the Philanthropic Foundation Board
of Cal State San Bernardino, and more recently, she
worked with the Inland Empire Children's Book Project.
Besides her volunteer activities, she enjoyed playing pan,
reading, and traveling, and she will be greatly missed. She
is survived by her children Jeffrey and Claire Cutler of Los
Angeles, Roberta and Robert Klein of Redlands; her
grandchildren Aron Cutler, Zachary Cutler, Molly Cutler,
Marissa Klein, Matthew Klein, David Klein and Zoe
Osborne, Dvora Klein and Conrad Pitheau, and her great
