MEET GABY
Gaby is an answered prayer, a long-awaited blessing in the lives of Dad Olan and Mommy Aileen. Her arrival filled their world with joy, purpose, and love beyond measure—transforming them into the people they were meant to be. A true gift from God, she is the heart of her family, the light in her parents' eyes, and the gentle soul who reminds everyone around her of life’s most precious gifts.
An only child, yet never alone, Gaby shares her days with Sandie, her playful Shih Tzu and a little sister in spirit. Raised with deep love and unwavering support, she has grown into a young woman with kindness in her heart, wisdom beyond her years, and a quiet strength that guides her through life’s challenges.
From a young age, Gaby found passion and discipline in gymnastics. With every leap, tumble, and routine, she showcased determination and resilience , undeterred by falls and bruises. Her dedication led her to numerous competitions, both within the country and abroad, where she proudly represented her school and family. Through hard work and perseverance, she brought home several medals, filling her loved ones with immense pride. Gymnastics not only honed her strength and agility but also instilled in her a deep sense of perseverance and grace under pressure.
Beyond her achievements, it is her heart that truly defines her. She is a cousin who welcomes and cares deeply—a loving Ate to Keasha and Uchy, and a baby sister to Joem and Paolo. She is also a thoughtful niece, never missing a family gathering because she believes that presence is a precious gift.
As Gaby steps into adulthood, we look back at the journey of a little girl who once fit perfectly in our arms—her chubby cheeks, wide eyes full of wonder, and a giggle that lit up the room. Today, she stands before us as a young woman, radiating warmth, wisdom beyond her years, and a smile that can brighten even the cloudiest of days.
At 18, she is more than just growing up—she is becoming. And we are honored to walk this
journey with her.
