Earley Glover, Sr., 85, passed away on July 8, 2025 at home in Jacksonville, FL.
Born in Townsend, GA on August 26, 1939, he enjoyed growing up with his brothers and sisters, including hitchhiking from Yulee to Fernandina Beach for the social life. After marrying and joining the U.S Army, he enjoyed the opportunity to live and experience different parts of the country which ignited his passion for the Los Angeles Dodgers and traveling.
Upon leaving the Army, he showed tremendous pride in working with not only the Apollo launches that sent men to the moon but the Space Shuttle program. Earley visited almost every state in the U.S but always found time to go see the Florida Gators play football or watch his beloved Dodgers on television.
Preceded in death by his wife Barbara Ann Dallas and daughter Juliette Ann Glover, he will be extremely missed by his children, Earley Glover, Jr., Felicia Glover, Dwayne (Mary) Glover and Antaletta Sanders; his brother, Ernest Glover, Sr., grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins and the friends and neighbors he made throughout his great life.
A service to remember and celebrate Mr. Glover's life will be held Friday, July 18, 2025 beginning at 11:00 AM at the Peck Auditorium here in Fernandina Beach. The family will begin receiving friends at 10:00 AM.
He will be laid to rest with his wife on Saturday, July 19th at 1:00 PM at Oaklawn Memorial Gardens in Titusville.
