Glasco Singleton

Glasco Singleton was born on March 7, 1937, in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. He was raised by his mother, Bernice, and grew up surrounded by family, hard work, and a love for dogs. Growing up, he was surrounded by dogs, as his stepfather raised hounds. His love for dogs remained with him throughout his life, bringing him companionship and joy over the years.

Glasco and his mother, Bernice, moved to San Jose, California, where he later met the love of his life, Dorothy Miers. The two married in 1958 and began a lifelong journey together, building a marriage rooted in love, commitment, faith, and shared purpose. Their union was blessed with two daughters, Shari Singleton and Chrystal Singleton.

One of the greatest sorrows of Glasco’s life was the loss of his oldest daughter, Shari, at just seven years old. Though her time with her family was heartbreakingly brief, she remained forever a part of his heart and his family’s story. He is survived by his daughter, Chrystal Singleton, MD.

Glasco was a man of faith whose beliefs were reflected in the way he lived and gave to others. He loved gospel music and was a devoted supporter of foreign and overseas missions. His faith extended beyond words, finding expression in his generosity, his concern for others, and his desire to help make a difference in the lives of people near and far.

A hardworking and accomplished businessman, Glasco owned and operated an auto body shop in Los Gatos, California, for more than 40 years. Glasco’s legacy extended far beyond business. He and Dorothy shared a generous heart and a deep belief in the importance of education. Together, they helped pay for college education and private schooling for many, giving other opportunities to pursue their dreams and build brighter futures. Their generosity was an expression of their faith and their desire to invest in the lives of others.

Glasco and Dorothy also shared a love of travel. What began as trips throughout the United States eventually grew into international adventures, as Dorothy encouraged him to become a world traveler. Together, they experienced new places, created treasured memories, and enjoyed the journey of discovering the world. Of all the places they visited, Lake Tahoe remained Glasco’s favorite.

Throughout his life, Glasco never lost his love for dogs. Having grown up surrounded by them, he continued to enjoy their companionship throughout the years. His love for animals was another enduring part of the life he lived and the things that brought him happiness.

Though he will be deeply missed, the legacy Glasco leaves behind is one of enduring love, faith, and generosity. His life stands as a reminder that true success is measured not only by what we build for ourselves, but also by what we give to others.
