Gladys Ann Miskovsky

Gladys Ann Miskovsky, 73, went to be with our Lord and Savior on
Tuesday, March 7, 2023, in Oklahoma City with her husband, Frank III,
and her son, Frank IV by her bedside. She was born in Wichita,
Kansas to Armelda and Ned Murad Simon on July 9, 1949. She
married the love of her life, Frank III, in 1968. The two were
inseparable and recently celebrated 54 years of marriage.
Above all, a devoted wife, mother and grandmother who delighted in
cooking for her family and friends; allowing no one the slightest
opportunity to ever leave her kitchen hungry. She wore many hats as
a wife and mother and could always be found in the stands in support
of every, single athletic performance of all three of her children.
Gladys loved the outdoors and made many memories with Frank and
the kids in Colorado and loved to fish and water ski at Lake Texoma.
Gladys attended Nichols Hills Elementary, John Marshall High School,
The University of Oklahoma and former Central State University. She
began her real estate career with Truman Miller and obtained her
broker license while serving as Vice President of Churchill Brown and
later formed her own brokerage company. She was also proud to
serve as President of the Oklahoma Bar Auxiliary in the mid 1970's.
Growing up, Gladys was the pretty blond haired, little girl who loved
girly things but she could also out-kick and out-throw a football or
baseball farther than any boy her age in the neighborhood. Her best
stories and fondest memories of her childhood were about her travels
to Marlow, Oklahoma with her little brother to visit their maternal aunts
and uncles affectionately known as the "Gandy Clan".
Gladys received world-class care at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in
Houston, Texas and was cared for by surgeon, Dr. Keith Fournier with
whom she became great friends. She also received tremendous
support from Dr. Van Morris, Houston, TX and Dr. Brian Geister,
Oklahoma City with special appreciation and thanks to her nurse,
Ashley Nguyen, who cared for Gladys with empathy and compassion
at Integris Cancer Institute in Oklahoma City. Gladys fought cancer for
close to five years with incredible courage and stoicism. Her strength,
love of life and love for her family will endure forever.
She is survived by her husband, Frank III, sons, Frank IV and Travis;
daughter Nicole and their respective spouses all of Oklahoma City;
grandchildren Madison, Emory, Jake, Mary Elizabeth and Dylan;
sister, Gaynelle Seager and brother, Dr. Ron Simon along with many
nieces, nephews and loving, life-long friends. Gladys is preceded in
death by her parents and oldest brother, Tommy Ned.
Her beloved family will miss her forever. Services will be held at 2 p.m.
Tuesday, March 14, 2023, at Nichols Hills United Methodist Church
with Interment following at Rose Hill Cemetery.
