As the clip ended, the panel returned with Gloria weeping and drying her tears with a tissue. She said: "I find it very emotional when I see lots of clips of her moving, living and laughing.
"She loved life and there'll be 15 of us tonight celebrating around a table, but Caron would be the one up and dancing on the table."
She added: "I remember reading something that has always stayed with me. It said 'There will be days you want to sit and weep but you have to remember if you weep until the day you die you'll cry all you're life but you'll never get her back'. I swallowed when I read that because it's so true."
