Gladys Louise was born and raised in Key West, Florida to the late Clifton and Cathleen Ferguson. She was the last of seven children.
Gladys attended Saint Francis Xavier Catholic School and graduated from Douglass High School in 1958 with honors. She worked for the Key West Chamber of Commerce over 30 years. She loved her family and enjoyed spending time with them. She made time for everyone and always had words of encouragement for them. She spent all of her life in Key West and was well known by most.
Gladys loved the Lord, public speaking, traveling, dancing (especially with the cruise ships and the Junkanoos) and cooking for her family was her passion. Our beloved mother, sister, aunt and friend will be truly missed.
She was predeceased by sisters Betty Louis and Marjorie Thomas, brothers Benjamin, Clifton, Danny and William Ferguson.
On Tuesday, January 21, 2025, our precious Lord called his daughter Gladys Louise Clarks to rest in his glory after 84 years on earth.
She leaves to cherish in her memory twins, loving daughter Gerlinde (Linda) Quiros (Ronald), devoted son Fred Clarks, two special grandsons who were the love of life, Zion and Joshua Quiros, a special sister-in-law, Gerlinde Ferguson of New York and a host of special nieces, nephews and friends, and a special friend Art Rogers.
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:7
