Johnny Allen "John" Glover

Johnny Allen Glover, age 59, resident of Somerville, Tennessee, departed this life Monday morning, June 17, 2024 at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Collierville, Tennessee.

John was born September 26, 1964 in Somerville, the son of the late Richard Glover and Hazel Doyle Glover. He graduated from Fayette Ware High School in 1982 and had many careers over his life including the Somerville Pants Factory, working in the HVAC industry, the logging industry and as a Fayette County crew man before his retirement.

John was an avid hunter and fisherman. He had a passion for training his hunting dogs to be the best hunters. He loved University of Tennessee Vols football and Dallas Cowboys football. Growing up, John was an aspiring baseball pitcher and his favorite player was Johnny Bench. If you couldn't find John, he was probably off on his motorcycle somewhere or playing pool. He also loved John Wayne and westerns - one of his favorites was McClintock.

John is survived by his daughter, Jessie Glover of Jonesboro, AR; his son, Josh Glover of Olive Branch, MS; his brother, Thomas Glover of Finger, TN; and five grandchildren. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brother, Aubrey Glover.

Graveside Services for Mr. Glover were held at 3:15 P.M. Sunday, June 23, 2024 at Mt. Moriah Cemetery near Whiteville, Tennessee with Scott Stout officiating.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be directed to LeBonheur Children's Hospital, 848 Adams Avenue, Memphis, TN 38103.
