ANDREW FRANK GLOVER, 54 died peacefully September 13, 2007 in his Richmond home surrounded by his family, following a lengthy illness.
Frank was born in Van Nuys, California July 6, 1953. He grew up and attended school in several states, enlisting in the Marine Corps at the age of 17, then completed his undergraduate studies in Nashville, Tennessee majoring in psychology, and obtained his masters in social work at University of Houston. He later achieved his advanced clinical practitioner status practicing psychiatric social work, and became a highly respected program director and team leader at the Houston Veteran’s Resource center 711, providing readjustment counseling services with amazing skill to post combat veterans and their families for
over 17 years.
He was active in the Disabled American Veteran’s Chapter 9, and of his many hobbies and interests, including camping, hiking, watching sci-fi, studying comparative religious philosophies and psychologies, playing rhythm and blues or jazz guitar, music from the 60’s era, and beaches, he most loved riding his Harley-Davidson with the U.S. Marine Corps bike club. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, co-workers and clients who were inspired and touched by his generous compassion, outstanding leadership, easy-going humor and high integrity and dedication to his fellow disabled veterans. He loved all, and all who knew him truly loved him.
He is preceded in death by his mother, Monica Oderman, grandparents, Frank and Jenny Gasparich, his brother Robert Stevenson and son Zachary Glover. He is survived by his sons, Christopher Glover, Alex Hargett, Andy Hargett, daughter and son in law, Katherine and Chris Hauff, grand daughter Dakota Hauff, brother Don Stevenson, stepfather James Stevenson and his beloved wife and best friend, Sherry Glover.
The family would like to thank Sharon Hempler, RN of the Houston Hospice for the consistent kindness, compassion and support she gave to the entire family.
A memorial service is planned for Frank at the Houston VA National Cemetery Chapel on Friday, September 28 at 11:30 a.m.
In lieu of flowers the family asks that donations be made to the charity of your choice.
