Carolyn Glenn Obituary

Carolyn Myers Glenn - SAVANNAH - Carolyn Myers Glenn died peacefully at home in Savannah on October 7, 2012. Nicknamed Cardo after her mother, Carolyn Morton Krenson Myers, she was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on July 6, 1928. Her father, John Anderson Myers, returned to Savannah with Cardo and her sister, Betsy Myers (Walker), and brother, Jack Myers, Jr., shortly after her mother's death. In a stroke of luck, Mr. Myers retained Cassie A. White, to help look after Cardo and her siblings. Cassie White continued her loving relationship with Cardo, Betsy, and Jack and the next generations of the family through her lifetime. Cardo attended The Pape School, graduated from The Baldwin School for Girls in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, and attended Mary Washington College in Fredericksburg, Virginia. She married Robert Strudwick Glenn (Bob) on February 12, 1949, and remained happily married to him until his death in June, 2011. Cardo was active in the Junior League of Savannah, serving as President from 1960-61, The Colonial Dames, and various other civic and social clubs. She obtained a Georgia real estate license in the mid-1960's and sold real estate with Phillip Morgan Realty for almost twenty years. Surviving are two sons and a daughter, Robert Strudwick Glenn, Jr., Carolyn Nash Glenn and Cooper Lenoir Glenn; daughter-in-law Deborah Porter Glenn; three grand-children, Catherine Strudwick Glenn of Savannah and Charlotte, N.C., Samuel Lenoir Glenn and Theodore Porter Glenn. The family will receive friends from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, October 11, 2012 at Fox & Weeks Funeral Directors, Hodgson Chapel.
