Gladys was born July 13, 1941 in Birmingham, Alabama to John Acie and Eunice (Henry) Hopkins. She grew up in the Miami, Florida area. In 1957, she married Jerry Sheets, Sr., and was blessed with three wonderful children. After that union was dissolved, she found love again and married Jack Bays.

While in Stillwater, Gladys married the love of her life Charles Pfeiffer in 1993. They were blessed with 14 wonderful years until Charlie’s passing in 2007. When her health began to fail she moved to Yale, Oklahoma to be closer to her daughter. She was a longtime member of St. Francis Catholic Church.
