My deepest condolences for your loss. Mrs. Glenda was an Angel on Earth and she is home now. Her cakes were the best, but we especially looked forward to her company!

Becky,
I want to offer you my sympathy in the loss of your Mother. She is a memory of West Memphis First Baptist Church from many years ago. From there we would see each other because you and my girls were in the same class. I admired many of her beautiful cakes she decorated and it seemed she never met a stranger. She will live on through the lives she touched. I know she loved those grandchildren because she talked of them so lovingly. I just wanted you to know I am thinking about you at this time and I care.
Sincerely,
Chris Shoemake

Steve, Becky, Richard and all of the family members. I just can't believe Glenda is in Heaven now. Glenda's joy, peace, laughter and love that just blessed everyone she met has left a lifetime of precious memories for all that loved her. I was lucky enough to be her friend. Glenda and Judy are together again and watching over all their family and friends, both gone way to soon. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Steve, Rebecka, Richard and family: I know this seems so very untimely. I have never known anyone so talented and good at so many different things. She truly loved her husband, kids grandkids and so many others. She was a giver to so many especially me. The time I spent working with her and shared with her will hold special memories forever. Remember she gave me my nickname "Abby" Normal. I love it and will miss her very much.

She touched everyone she met and always had a smile. What a great human being! The world has lost a great woman, but Heaven has gained a great worker bee. I am sure she will have everything organized by the time we see her again in the house of our Lord. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. She will be greatly missed.

I just cannot believe I'm signing a book for one of the best friends I ever had. I have cried constantly and she would certainly tell me to hush. SHE was the one I called when I was so upset. Glenda, you now ARE my angel, literally. I love you so much!

Glenda was such a beautiful person; inside and out. She used to tell so many stories and make me laugh so hard! Glenda always had a smile that would come through the telephone and brighten my day. She was the best! I have often thought of her and will continue to cherish all of the happy memories I have of her. I am so glad I knew her and I am so very sorry for your loss.

Richard, Becky and Girls,
I'm so sorry to hear about Glenda. It's hard to lose your Mother, but boy did she leave some special memories. She always smiled and loved her family. That is a beautiful picture that someone choose to put in her obituary. May God put His arms around you a little tighter and put a peace over you, but we know where she is and she makes Heaven a little sweeter. I am praying for you. I love all of you very much, Grams

Just wanted wanted to say Glenda was a wonderful lady. I did not get to know her too well except through my late sister- in- law, Judy Qualls. Glenda was a rock to my brother, Buster Qualls when Judy was sick with her cancer and later passed away. Buster is on the road trucking and not able to attend the services but sends his prayers and love to the family.
