Maria Glover

Maria Glover, 95, of Denver, Colorado, went to heaven on Sunday, November 2nd, 2014. Rosary & Funeral services will be held Thursday, November 6th, 2014 at 10:00 am, Crown Hill Mortuary, Pavilion of Reflection.

Maria Glover was born October 23rd, 1919 in Holman, New Mexico. She was one of 12 siblings. She is survived by one sister, Corine Gallegos of Las Vegas, New Mexico. Maria is preceded in death by one daughter, Victoria Glover and survived by daughter Bea Barela and son Levi (Denise) Ortiz. Maria is also survived by 10 grandchildren, 11 great grandchildren, 2 great-great grandchildren and many nieces, nephews and loving family members.

Maria passed peacefully in her sleep Sunday morning, November 2nd, which is most fitting since that day is the Feast of All Souls. She will now be able to enjoy all the treasures of heaven with all who will greet her there.

Maria will take with her all her most favorite things like sewing, fishing, picking & eating piñón nuts, taking long car-rides in the mountains (especially during Autumn), McDonald’s French fries, feeding ducks & geese at the lake, Dr. Laura (talk-show), All-Star wrestling, nickel slot machines, ceramics, crafts, crocheting, embroidery, quilting, riding her scooter down to the 16th Street Mall to people-watch while eating a hamburger & fries, listening to Spanish music, watching people dance, and most importantly, taking such great care of all the children in her extended family.

Maria impacted so many lives in her 95 years on this earth; she will be sorely missed by all. Her legacy of crocheted & quilted blankets for not only everyone in her family, but friends and their families as well, will never be forgotten.
