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;

Jr., Adeline Cynthia Bozeman and Andrew Kreeger Ulsh Jr.; and

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
