Joshua Allen Glover's Obituary
It is with broken hearts that we must announce the sudden passing of Joshua (Josh) Allen Glover, 40, of Olive Branch, MS on February 10, 2025. Josh was born in Memphis, TN on December 22, 1984 to Johnny and Julie Glover. Josh was the best Christmas present ever received.
Josh was preceded in death by his father, Johnny Allen Glover,-only eight months ago, uncles James (Jimbo) Chrestman and Aubrey Glover, grandparents Hazel and Richard Glover, Wanda and Joe Haase.
Josh is survived by his beloved four year old son, Caleb Michael Glover, mother and stepfather, Julie and Bo Simmons, sister, Jessie Glover, aunt, Bridget Phillips, uncles, Thomas Glover and James Robert Chrestman, grandfather, James Chrestman, three nephews, one niece and a host of cousins.
Josh touched so many lives with his kind heart and never-ending talent to make us laugh. Many considered him a gentle giant with his 6’3 stature and beautiful smile. He was our protector and a pillar of strength for those in need.
Josh graduated from Cordova High School where he maintained an abundance of lifelong friends. His best friend since eighth grade, Mehul Patel M.D. was loved as a brother and he rarely missed a family celebration.
Josh spent his every free moment with his son. He cherished that little boy and took him fishing often. He was a dedicated TN Vols fan and when he cheered for his team, little Caleb cheered louder, GO VOLS!! He also enjoyed singing karaoke with friends and was a fan of St. Louis Cardinals.
The family invites friends to gather Thursday evening February 20 from 5:00pm until 7:00pm for visitation at Memorial Park. Funeral services will be held Friday February 21, 2025, at 1:00pm at Memorial Park Funeral Home 5668 Poplar Ave Memphis, TN 38119
