Vivian Glover Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on May 30, 2025.
Vivian Jewel Glover (nee May) passed away on May 23, 2025 in Forest Hill, Maryland at the age of 93.

Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Den May and Malva May Clydesdale (nee Prater) on January 8, 1932. She is survived by her children Harry C., Jr of Croydon, PA, Lee Edmond of Rice, Washington, Gail Tarreteta (Mike) of Brooksville, Florida, David A. (Karen) and Peter J. (Juanita) of Abingdon, Maryland; fourteen grandchildren and twenty one great grandchildren; two nieces and one nephew.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband Harry C. Glover, Sr., devoted brother Den May and his wife Florence Jean and her daughter-in-law, Sandy, whom she adored.

A 45 year resident of Joppatowne, Maryland, Vivian loved knitting, counted cross stitching and keeping a calendar of life events. She was particularly fond of hummingbirds and pop tarts. Her favorite vacation spot was Disney World. She spent many years with her husband and family boating on the Gunpowder River aboard the "Toots", a nickname her brother gave her.

She gathered many friends volunteering alongside her husband at the Havre de Grace Maritime Museum.

Those who knew Vivian will remember her as an amazing person whose strength and kindness left them with a lasting impression. May her memory bring peace to those who loved her and serve as a reminder of a life well lived.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
