Christie Annette Wells Glaze (Chris) Born October 16, 1959, went to be with the
lord August 15, 2013. Chris Glaze was born in Atlanta Georgia and grew up in
Texas, New Jersey and Georgia. She attended Peachtree High School in Chamblee,
Ga (now Dunwoody), where she played flute in the high school band, and where she
met her future husband, Jeff. Christie was a member of Kingswood United
Methodist Church in Dunwoody, where she nurtured her deep Christian faith and
encouraged others in their spiritual journey. She was active in her Sunday
school and was a frequent volunteer for the church's VBS. Christie played in
Kingwood's wind ensemble for years. Christie was severely injured in an auto
accident in 1978 while a student at DeKalb Community College. Her spirit of
determination and drive served her well in her recovery and rehabilitation, and
in the ensuing years of surgery and pain management. When told she would never
walk again, she redoubled her efforts in physical therapy. She was always a
model patient, exceeding the doctors' expectations, and inspiring others around
her to never give up. In 1980, Christie walked down the aisle at Kingswood UMC
to marry Jeff Glaze. When told she would never have children, Christie worked
hard to prove that wrong. After sixteen years, the Glazes were blessed with the
miracle birth of their daughter Julianne. Julianne was the love of her life and
her reason for hope. Christie was a lifetime member of the Girls Scouts, and
enjoyed being a leader beginning in Julianne's Daisy and Brownie years. Christie
was also a habitual reader and writer. She enjoyed reading inspirational
fiction, scrapbooking, and journaling. She also enjoyed giving gifts she knew
would bring a joyous smile to those she held dear. Chris Glaze was preceded in
death by her brother Kenneth Miles Wells; her grandparents Harold Miles Wells,
Sr. and Mamie Williams Wells; Farris Boyd and Emily Davis Boyd. She is survived
by her husband of 33 years, Jeffrey Lee Glaze and daughter Julia Annette Glaze
(Julianne) of Doraville, GA; her parents, Harold Miles Wells and Charlotte
Annette Boyd Wells of Lawrenceville, Ga; brother Kevin Boyd Wells and his wife
Holly Wells of Nicholson, Ga.
