Gerard Castro Arcilla was known by close family and friends as “Gerry.” He grew up in the Philippines with five siblings. Pursuing his passion to help people, Gerry received his medical degree from the University of the Philippines in 1979, where he was a proud member of the Mu Sigma Phi fraternity. Thereafter, he moved to Long Island, New York, where he completed a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Residency.

Gerry worked at Alvarado Hospital, Paradise Valley Hospital, and was a member of the Philippine Medical Association of San Diego. In addition, he worked in various nursing homes in the county. In his personal life, Gerry was known to be jovial, and many were drawn to his warm personality. His favorite past times included dancing, tennis, and golf.

However, Gerry valued family above all things. He was happily married to Josephine, his medical school classmate, for thirty-four years. They had two sons: John who is also a physician, and Gerard, an attorney. Gerry cherished his time on earth and was a doting grandfather to three grandchildren: Bella, Ava, and Olivia. Gerry will never be forgotten. May he rest eternally in heaven.
