Jessie was born on December 23rd, 1944, in Elgin, Texas, the third child of Jessie Willard and Hattie Louise Lehman Glover. Upon graduation from Stephen F. Austin High School in Bryan, she married Phillip Jordon Sabo and moved to San Antonio where she worked from the San Antonio Express Newspaper for a number of years, followed by a 30-year distinguished career with Southwestern Bell/AT&T.
