A graduate of Many High School, Glenda dedicated her professional life to her career in Fort Worth, Texas, where she worked until her retirement.

The family wishes to extend their sincere appreciation to the staff at Natchitoches Community Care for their exemplary care and compassion. Their unwavering support was invaluable, along with the dedicated staff at Natchitoches Regional Medical Center, who provided constant care during her time there.

Glenda's family legacy includes her children: Debra Gonzales, Stephen Eckert, and Lisa Moore; and her ten cherished grandchildren. She is also survived by her siblings: Bruce Mitchell and his wife Nita, Louise Martin, Kerry Mitchell, and Kent Mitchell and his wife LeeAnne. Glenda was preceded in death by her parents and two brothers, Charles Mitchell and Keith Mitchell.
