John A. Glover Sr.

Grandpa,

I cant tell you how much I miss you. You were the only father I knew. There are so many things I want to tell you. Lil' John is getting so big and he is starting to be a handful when it comes to the girls. What do I do? Never mind, I already know your answer. I tell everyone I know about you. You will never fade away- I promise. I still continue to make you proud. I am staying sharp and strong, yet bend when I need to. I help those I can and expect nothing in return. I am kind not weak......... like you told me to be. I hear you sometimes. I know you are here. I miss you. And I love you.

Joalie

Although it has been a year since you have left us, I still can't believe it. You were bigger than life and so intertwined in all of our lives. I remember when Mom passed away, at the funeral, I told you "You had better not leave me too" and you laughed and said "I'll probably out live you", and that comforted me at that time of loss. You were always there for me when I needed you and tried your best to help when you were asked. Thank you for all the things you did for me and my family. I miss you.

I can't believe it's been a year - I still turn to pick up the phone to call you, usually for advice. I hear funny jokes that I can't wait to tell you, dirty ones of course.

I miss you Dad, I thought it would get easier as time went on - but it hasn't! There is not one single day that passes that I don't think about you.

Thank you for all of the visits you pay me in my dreams, although - it looks like you've had another face lift - Now I know your in heaven!



I LOVE YOU DAD AND

I MISS YOU MORE THAN EVER.

LOVE,

STACY

We will always remember John, and miss him sleeping in front of our house waiting on his family.

I miss my dad. I wanted to plant some tomatoes for him again this year. I am pregnant with my third baby and I am very sad that he won't see this one. I never believed that my dad would really die, and now that he has, I keep waiting for a phone call from him telling me that this has all been a joke. I have a short story to tell about him and then I will end this. When I was pregnant with my son Logan, I developed an insane craving for fruit. I asked Dad if I could plant a garden by the greenhouse in the old peach orchard, and he said yes. Jeff tilled it with Dad's little red tractor, and I planted about a quarter acre of melons- honeydews, cantaloupes, and watermelons. After awhile, I realized that I planted too late in the season to get a crop, and I went there about once a week to check on everything and water. Then, I let two weeks go by. Dad called me and said that there was a fruit explosion in my garden and that I needed to bring my truck and get it all before it started to rot. Confused, I drove over there with Jeff. There were melons all over the place. HUGE watermelons, luscious smells in the air, and whooping with delight, I waddled out there and started to load the truck. I noticed that the fruits weren't connected to the vine, and Jeff and I decided that ripe fruits must fall form the vine like ripe peaches fall from a tree. Then, in the middle of our victory harvest, Jeff said "I think we have been had." I looked over at him and he was holding a PINEAPPLE!!!!!!!! Then, I noticed a farm sticker on one of the melons. Dad had gone to the store, bought at least a hundred dollars worth of melons and salted my garden with them!!!! What a neat dad.

John, you will never be forgotten. You have left a very special woman, Debbie who loves you dearly and will never let your memory fade. We miss you. Donna Sue

In the 4th grade, I wrote a paper about the person I most admire.

The paper was about my Father.

It was true then and it is true now.



Thank you Daddy, for giving me wings, wings I use to soar!

The first time we met I could not believe you took a second look in my direction.It was love at first sight,you were my godfather,lover and friend.I miss you dearly.Till we are together again. I love you.

My deepest sympathies to John's family and special prayers for you, Debbie. May you find peace and comfort.

Joan Bartleson, daughter. He was the most influencial person in my life and will be dearly missed.

My deepest sympathy to the family. Though I never met Mr. Glover, through a special granddaughter I learned what an extraordinary man he was. He will be deeply missed by many.
