Glenda services as an agent for Norton Agency before moving to Keller Williams. Glenda served others and was passionate about helping friends and clients find the perfect real estate to meet their needs and desires. She was active in real estate until her retirement in 2023.
To know Glenda was to love her. She was very kind to everyone she met and made a lasting impression. She was always strikingly beautiful with her dark hair and blue eyes; in her younger years she was compared to Elizabeth Taylor. She was a fantastic chef and loved to show her love and affection for others by cooking and serving.
