Glenda always wanted to know what the fish were biting on. I will look up and think of her every time I am on the water. Now she will know the truth. It will be our little secret. You will be missed here on God's green earth. Until we meet again.

So sorry for the loss of this inspiring lady. She became a friend many years ago and through that friendship, our realtor. Glenda sold three properties for us and aided in the purchase of a fourth. The local real estate community has lost one of its most valuable assets and her family has lost a stalwart.

I am thankful I will always have the wonderful memories of this beautiful lady. I spent A LOT of time hanging out at her house with her daughters growing up. She loved hearing and laughing about all of our shenanigans and She was right there in the middle of all of us.
When she cared about you- she cared about you! When she loved you, she LOVED you and would do anything for you.
My heart and prayers are with you!

When I worked at Independence County Abstract I saw her many times. I just loved her. She had such a nice personality. I remember a funny story about her but it is not the appropriate time to tell it, although I think the family and all of her friends would like to hear. It has the opposite word for Heaven in it, so I would not put it on her. Sorry to the family for your loss. She was great and will be missed, but she is not suffering now, and is in a better place. Prayers for the family in this difficult time.

We are so very sorry for your loss. Glenda was always a fun, friendly lady with a tremendously great sense of humor. Prayers for strength, peace, wisdom and comfort for all that loved her dearly during this time of grief. She will be missed by so many more people than just her immediate family. A very special lady indeed! Sending hugs.

Glenda will be greatly missed in the business community of real estate sales and marketing. She was an involved member with the Batesville Board of Realtors and exhibited honest and ethical actions in her business. My prayers and thoughts will be with the family in the days ahead. Cherish all the funny things she said and did, and they were many. She would want you to go on and smile when you think of her.

Roger, Winston, Kathleen, Clenis, Benny and all the kids and grandkids,
I am sorry to hear about Glenda. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. May the lord be with you and help you through this hard time. Glenda
was a very sweet person and so nice and friendly. She helped us sell Mama and Daddy's house at Searcy and it just kind of helped to get through that having Glenda there to take care of everything for us.
We love you all,
Bob and Shirley
