Glenda Lee (Graham) Touchstone, 86, passed away peacefully on July 5, 2025, in Brea,
California. She was born to Milton and Norma (Chandler) Graham on October 25, 1938, in
Cherokee County, Oklahoma. She was raised most of her life in Oklahoma and graduated as
class Valedictorian from Oaks Mission High School. Immediately upon graduation she moved to
California to marry and start her family. While raising her children she earned her certification to
become a dental hygienist. She was always good with numbers and at the end of her career in
the dental field she transitioned into an accounting career working for Reliance Chemical
Coatings where she ultimately retired in 1998.
In 1975 Glenda married Donald Touchstone and added two sons to her family. This past June,
they celebrated 50 years of marriage. Together they enjoyed bowling (where they met), traveling
and cruises. They were able to cruise to Alaska twice and a wonderful two-week cruise to the
Hawaiian Islands. They were tourists at the Grand Canyon, bowled in Las Vegas, flew and drove
to the following: Northern California, Oregon, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri and
Arkansas to enjoy the company of family and friends.
She loved her family! Along with bowling and traveling she enjoyed doing crochet and crafts and
watching sporting events, especially her beloved Dodgers & Lakers. Glenda was preceded in
death by her parents Milton and Norma and brothers Leo, JB and J.H Graham. She is survived by
her husband Don; Children Loran and wife Crystal Whitehorn, Linda and husband Jerry
Holderby, Kevin Whitehorn, Donald and wife Sharon Touchstone, David and wife Holly
Touchstone; grandchildren Jason, Jarrod, Miracle, Kindle, Jordan, Jonathan, Christopher, Jennifer,

(JJ), Dylan, Haley, Blakely, Ripley, Daniel and Lincoln; great-great grandchildren Kohen and Milo;

and cousins.
