Mrs. Margaret Miller Glover

Mrs. Margaret Miller Glover, 92, of Newnan passed away peacefully on Aug. 5, 2006 at her home on Woodbine Circle, Newnan, following an extended illness. Mrs. Glover was born on Aug. 26, 1913, in Macon, Ga., to the late Wallace Miller and Mary Shewell Miller. Following graduation from A.L. Miller High, named for her grandfather, Mrs. Glover attended Randolph-Macon College in Lynchburg, Virginia and Wesleyan College in Macon, graduating from Wesleyan in 1934. She continued her studies at the University of Georgia where she received her Masters in History in 1935.

In 1936, three days after her birthday, she married her husband of 64 years, John Littleton Glover, who predeceased her. She is survived by two sons, John Littleton Glover Jr. and his wife Cynthia B. Glover, and Wallace Miller Glover and his wife Kay H. Glover; brother and sister-in-law Mr. and Mrs. John B. Miller of Savannah; sisters-in-law Winifred G. Klein of Atlanta and Margaret W. Glover of Newnan; brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law Dr. and Mrs. Howard C. Glover Jr. of Newnan and Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Clarke Glover of West Point; grandson Wallace Miller Glover Jr. and wife Ashley R. Glover; grandson Michael H. Glover; grandson Kelley C. Glover; grandson John Littleton Glover III; granddaughter Bingham Glover Ulsh and husband Andrew K. Ulsh; granddaughter C. Reid Connor and husband John Michael Connor; granddaughter Caroline R.

Truett Gardner; great-grandchildren Amelia Reid Connor, John Michael Connor Jr., Adeline Cynthia Bozeman and Andrew Kreeger Ulsh Jr.; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Mrs. Glover was first and foremost a wonderful and loving wife, mother and grandmother. While she was active and prior to the time she contracted Alzheimer's, she was an ardent reader of both fiction and non-fiction works. She was involved in the lives of her boys, acting in such diverse roles as Cub Scout den mother and junior high basketball team driver. She loved flowers and plants, and not only was a member of the Driftwood Garden Club for many years, but enjoyed working in her yard on Woodbine Circle. Although she grew up a Methodist, to the delight of her husband and boys, she joined and was a member of Central Baptist Church for over 50 years.

Outside of her family, two of the great joys of her life were traveling and spending time at the beach. Following successfully overcoming cancer at the age of 50, she determined that she wanted to see as much of the world as she could. During the next 25 years, she and her husband traveled around the globe many times, visiting over 100 different countries and destinations. Mrs. Glover loved to spend time at her family's beach house on East Beach in St. Simon's. After she and her siblings sold the home in the early 1960s, for the next three decades the couple would generally spend a month or so each year on the beaches of Ponte Vedra, Florida or Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

In keeping with her wishes, a funeral service will be held for her family members only, and burial will be in the Glover family lot in Oak Hill cemetery. The family will receive friends from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 8, at McKoon Funeral Home.
