Oralia Gamez was born in Robstown, TX to Thomas Gamez, Sr. and Frances (Rangel). She was raised along with her 3 brothers and 4 sisters near Hobart, OK. She and her siblings attended Lone Wolf Schools in Lone Wolf, OK. After high school Oralia had a few different careers but loved helping people so eventually she became a nurses aide.
