Gladys Gevieso Urbanozo

Gladys Gevieso Urbanozo, a beloved daughter, sister, wife, and friend, passed away on September 6, 2025, after a brave battle with a terminal illness. Born on April 26, 1965, in Maguindanao, Philippines, she touched the lives of many with her kind heart and infectious laughter.
Gladys was a dedicated clinical pharmacist who graduated with honors from elementary to college. She spent 25 years working in Saudi Arabia before moving to San Mateo, California, to be with her husband, Francis. Her passion for travel took her to various places in Asia and the United States, creating cherished memories with her family.
A talented cook and baker, Gladys delighted in preparing delicious meals for her loved ones. She dreamed of exploring Europe with her sisters but was unable to fulfill this wish due to her illness. Despite her struggles, Gladys remained strong and positive, leaving a lasting impact on all who knew her.
