Glenda Owens Couch, of Mechanicsville, went peacefully to be with her Lord on February 2, 2018. She was predeceased by her loving mother, Pauline Estelle Owens. She is survived by her caring father, Joseph Glenn Owens; devoted sister and best friend, Vickie Owens Martin; son, Christopher Brian Couch (Brianna) and their children, Eva MaeBelle and Elsie Lillian; daughter, Lisa Couch Augst (Michael); nieces, Jo-Lyn Martin Murphy (George) and their children, Noah, Wylder, Meadow, and Remi; Jana Martin (Andrew Wood); and nieces and nephews, Christy Davis, Danielle Saunders, Joseph Woody, Daniel Couch, Matthew Couch and their families. She is also survived by the father of her children, Paul W. Couch. Glenda was a faithful member of New Bridge Baptist Church and was an active participant in the Tuesday Bible Study at WEAG. She felt supported and comforted by the multitude of cards and prayers she received from her church family at NBBC, the prayer warriors at TBS and her many friends and family. She loved helping others and gave generously to those in need. Glenda enjoyed going to the movies with good friends, Myrtle Beach with family, and Charleston, SC with her sister-in-law and sidekick, Debra Woody. She deeply loved and was committed to her family; her greatest joy was being a beloved Mimi to Eva and Elsie, who held her heart.
