Glenda's favorite hobbies

My Momma absolutely loved Cooking for her kids, her friends, family, and most anyone that needed a good meal, she was on it!

Interesting facts about Glenda

Even though my Mom loved to Cook, she didn't like all food. She especially didn't care for Italian food much at all, but she did love my sister, Melissa's Baked Spaghetti, but that's all! Another interesting Fact is my Momma was terrified of water, bcuz she didn't know how to Swim. A fact I found out later in my life too! My Momma NEVER met a Stranger.

Favorite bands and musical artists

My Momma liked mostly Country Music, with a little bit of Pop & Rock.

Interesting facts about Glenda

My Momma always acted tough, and tough she was, but when it came to not being able to see her Grandchildren, she broke down each and every day devasted over not seeing them when she wanted. This was probably the hardest thing on my Momma, was not being able to see her grandkids, and kids.

Glenda loved nothing more than

Favorite place in the world

Spending time with her Kids, especially Grandkids, and her friends & family.

Favorite TV shows

She loved watching YouTube Videos of baby Monkeys, Cooking Shows, and Old Westerns.

Favorite sports

Not very interested in sports, unless grandkid was playing in sports.
