Gladys De Los Angeles Viver Alvarado

Gladys was a beloved school teacher in her former country where she taught art at Otto Arosemena Gomez for many years before retiring. She was an amazing, brilliant, and talented woman who loved to make and sew beautiful things, a walking piece of history from whom we loved hearing many stories of her life growing up. She was a great and a proud grandmother, who enjoyed spoiling her grand children and great grand children.

She is survived by two sons and a daughter: Max Perez of Keller, TX., Julio Serrano of Ft. Worth, TX. and Martha Pita of Euless, TX. Seven grandchildren: Vincent Perez, Marie Perez, Emily Perez, Lourdes Baker, Raquel Pagan, Carlos Serrano, Gladys Serrano; Three great-grandchildren: Hunter Baker, Malakae Pagan, and Mikaela Pagan.

She lived a full life, complete with laughter and sorrow, and

as we gather here today, although we will miss her physical presence in our lives let’s not just grieve but also celebrate her life as it was fully lived. As we talk and visit, allow us to share our memories, as her spirit continues to live in all of us.

Services are under the direction of Shannon Rufe Snow Funeral Chapel, 6001 Rufe Snow Dr, Fort Worth, TX.
