Adrienne LaVieve Glaeser

Adrienne was born November 26, 1939, in Washington, D.C., to Reese F. Hill, Sr., and LaVieve (Richards) Hill. She attended Stephens College, where she intended to study aviation but instead developed her love of art and her impatience with formal etiquette and attire. She was an accomplished Flamenco and classical guitarist and an exceptionally talented artist. She loved football (go Chiefs!). She was curious and adventurous and explored interests as varied as naturopathic medicine, Native American rights and culture, driving big rig trucks, and the supernatural. She loved animals and nature, especially the peaceful and beautiful rural Missouri home in which she lived for more than 30 years with her husband. Adrienne is survived by her husband, Terry Glaeser, Sr.; her children Marcelle Coder (Chris), Janine Balenti (Chris), Lorraine Esposito, Teresa George (Brad Austin), and Terry Glaeser, Jr.; grandchildren Amira Althany, Danya Aletebi, Patrick Duley, Tyler Duley, Hannah Coder, Claire Coder, Michael Esposito, and Jack Esposito; great-granddaughter Niyah Althany; and sisters-in-law Barbara Hill, Carol Glaeser, and Suzette Glaeser. We will miss her feisty spirit so very much.
