Gloria was born April 10, 1925, in Santiago Ilocus Sur, Philippines, the daughter of the late Santiago Miranda and Juana Josue Miranda. Gloria attended Far Eastern University, graduating in 1952. She thoroughly enjoyed her family get-togethers and especially cooking and gardening. She loved to spend time in her garden and would spend countless hours ensuring her flowers and garden would blossom to their fullest.
On October 16, 1952 Gloria married the love of her life, Oscar Edrada, and followed him to wherever he went. She came to the United States in 1957. Being the wife of a career navy man, she has seen the world from the Philippines to Madrid Spain, all points in between, and then finally settling down in Charleston, SC. She was happily married to Oscar for over 66 years. She left behind in the Philippines her two sisters, Felicita Miranda Abad and Godafrieda Josue and her brother Antonio Josue Miranda.

Surviving are her husband and her three boys. She has countless memories of her three sons, Orville, Rolando, and James. Orville and daughter-in-law Gina of Columbia, SC, have two boys, Marshal and Adam. Marshal and his wife Brittney of Lexington, SC have two girls, Emma Grey and Emerson. Adam and his fiancee Leslie reside in Boulder, Colorado. Rolando and daughter-in-law Cathy of Knoxville, TN, have three boys, Daniel, David and Dillon and one girl, Amanda. Daniel and his wife Taylor reside in Goose Creek, SC. James and his son Oscar reside in Asheville, NC. Gloria’s three boys, her seven grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren were her passion and delight. She leaves behind numerous loving relatives and friends.

The family wishes to thank all of those who cared for her during the past months.
