She was chosen from among NCPACA Lifetime Achievement awardees to be the event chairperson for NCPACA’s 30th Anniversary in Seattle, Washington last year.
She is a Past President and currently an Adviser of PASCPA. Since she joined PASCPA in 2001, Gloria oftentimes chaired the installation of officers and board members and induction of new members and spearheaded fundraising activities of the organization.
One of her biggest achievements was to send 40 boxes of books to Salvacion Elementary School in Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya and install electric fans in every classroom.
Glo was born in VISTA ALEGRE (known as “BANCA"), Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya. She was raised in a simple but descent family who could hardly afford to send their children to school. She had to work and study harder in order to attain her dreams in life. She was awarded the “Mathematician of the Year” when she was in Grade 4 at Bayombong Central School. She graduated with an honorary distinction in high school at Saint Mary’s Girls High School in 1969.
Supporting herself through college as a librarian, she finished her Bachelor of Science in Accounting at Saint Mary’s University. She passed the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) licensure examination in the Philippines. She worked and retired from Philippine Airlines as a Corporate Planning Analyst.
She moved to the US in 1998 and continued to work as a comptroller in a multi-million investment and apparel company. She retired in 2013. She now works as realtor with Keller Williams.
She is married to Felimon Paller Cajanap, a banker. They are blessed with three daughters: Jocelyn, Josephine and Jeanneth.
All of them graduated Magna Cum Laude! Jocelyn pursued her Master’s Degree in Nursing at the University of San Francisco, Magna Cum Laude. She works as a clinical educator specializing in sepsis at Glendale Adventist Medical Center. Josephine finished her Doctorate Degree in Physical Therapy at Boston University, Magna Cum Laude. She works as the Director of Physical Therapy at Good Samaritan Hospital. Jeanneth, a CPA, earned her Master’s Degree in Business Taxation at the University of Southern California, Magna Cum Laude. She works as a special projects auditor for the federal government. Mon and Glo have 3 grandsons: Matt,12 years old, Jon, 9 years old (sons of Josephine and Alan), and Andre, 5 years old, (son of Jeanneth and Andy), and a granddaughter, Alexandra, 3 years old (daughter of Jocelyn and Sergey).
A true and qualified President to lead an entire Marian alumni community.

Priscilla Mallare @ Cora Timoteo
FYI : Info re: Nueva Vizcaya reunion
Angel Aluning Auntie Priscing Priscilla Mallare... where is this Nueva Vizcaya reunion? when will it happen? and who are organizing it? and may I have your address again please because the SMU Alumni sent you an application form but it returned saying that your address can not be found. you can private message me your address Auntie. thank you.
Priscilla Mallare I sent your reunion info to a friendwho is from Nueva Vizcaya so I wroteNueva Vizcaya instead of SMU. Hoping she would join the reunion of SM U then. I moved 2 years ago after a heart bypass cause I can no longer climb the stairs in my former home. I will write my new address in your private message
Angel Aluning Oh I see Auntie Priscing Priscilla... so it's the SMU reunion in June 2018 that you were referring to. It's a good thing that you survived the major heart surgery. God is really good Auntie. I told my parents about it. We hope to see you next year at the SMU Alumni association reunion at the Embassy Suites in Glendale. I will wait for your new address in my messages so that we can send you the form. Thanks Auntie and best regards. Take care. you can also register online in the website above.
