Glenda was born September 9, 1952 in Anniston, Alabama. After graduating from Oxford High School in 1970, she became a registered nurse. She began her 40-year nursing career at Druid City Hospital in Tuscaloosa, AL., then, to North Alabama Regional Hospital in Decatur, AL where she retired as a 30-year state employee. After retirement, she worked 10 years at Crestwood Medical Center, Huntsville, AL., in the Behavioral Health Unit. Glenda was an outstanding nurse who dedicated her career to mental behavioral health. She was a lifelong member of Trinity Baptist Church, Oxford, AL.
Glenda was a kind, gentle, selfless person and most humble of all. Going to Alabama football games with her daughter was a thrill each year. Roll Tide and her grandchildren were her passion! She was a definition of a true “fan”! The dedication of her family was always top priority. And, she was an animal lover, always having a dog and a few kittens. Her generous spirit was a gift from God-a true blessing to her family.
In lieu of flowers, the family request memorial donations to Alabama Alliance Behavioral Health, 250 Chateau Dr., Huntsville, AL 35801, or, register to give Covid 19 Convalescent Plasma to the American Red Cross.
In accordance with the state-mandated health order, masks and social distancing required!
