Kyle Gleghorn

Kyle was born January 31, 1952, to Bob and Bertie Gleghorn in El Dorado, AR. Kyle was the first born son to be followed by Gifford and Toni a couple of years later. Although Kyle spent most of his life in his hometown, he moved as a young boy to Sweetwater, TX for two years. From that time on, the Texas blood started flowing through his veins, and he has loved all things Texas, especially the Texas Longhorns. Kyle graduated from El Dorado High School in 1970 where he represented his school as a delegate to Boys’ State. In 1973, Kyle married Stephenie Dumas. Five years later they welcomed their only child Andria who has always been a “daddy’s girl.” Kyle started working at United Parcel Service at 21 and worked there for 30 years. He loved his job. He never met a stranger and had a way of making everyone laugh–two things that led to him being a fun UPS man! His territorial town Magnolia celebrated him with a “Kyle Gleghorn Day” upon his retirement. Kyle was raised at First Presbyterian Church but converted to the Baptist faith upon marriage. Wyatt Baptist Church became his home church. He loved the Lord and loved to sing, a legacy he passed on to his daughter.

Kyle was preceded in death by his parents Bob and Bertie Gleghorn.

Surviving him are his wife of 52 years Stephenie and his daughter Andria, his brother Giff Gleghorn (Rhonda), his sister Toni Robertson (Carlon), his brothers-in-law Don Dumas (Pat) and Stephen Dumas. Kyle has several nephews and nieces that adored him-Dustin Foster, Nathan Gleghorn (Angie), Blake Foster, Jennifer McElroy (Mark), Joshua Dumas, and Christian Dumas.

A celebration of life will be held at First Baptist Church on Friday, February 13, 2026 at 2:00 with visitation at 1:00.

Donations in Kyle’s memory can be made to the Barton Gives Back Fund at Barton Junior High where Kyle was a proud Wildkitten!
