Born on June 28, 1933, Glenda lived a beautiful life centered on the people she loved most. She shared 70 wonderful years of marriage with her devoted husband, John Bextermueller. Together, they built a life filled with love, commitment, and family legacy that will continue for generations to come.

Glenda was an amazing mother whose love knew no bounds.

She had a special way of making those she loved feel cared for and cherished. Her family was her heart, and the love she gave them will remain a treasured gift forever.

Although her family must now say goodbye, the love she planted in their hearts will never fade. Her legacy lives on through her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great grandchildren and all those who were fortunate enough to know and love her.
