McGee, Glessie Leola

Glessie Leola McGee June 15, 1924 - April 13, 2007 Glessie Leola 
McGee was born June 15, 1924 in Bennington, Oklahoma to Nathaniel and 
Martha Owens. She passed away April 13, 2007, at the age of 82, in 
Tucson, Arizona where she had been living since 2003. Visitation will 
be held today from noon to 1:30 p.m., at the Hopson- Anspach Mortuary 
in Lamont. A graveside service will be held at 2:00 p.m. today at the 
South Kern Cemetery outdoor chapel. Elmo Moody will officiate. 
Glessie came to Kern County in 1947 and lived in Arvin until her move 
to Arizona. She married her husband, Grover McGee, in Las Vegas. 
Above all Glessie cared about her family; she always made sure her 
family knew they had a home with her if they needed it. She was a 
generous and giving woman. Glessie was the kind of woman who would 
say what was on her mind all the time. She loved shoes, jewelry, 
purses and going to second hand stores. Family will always remember 
that she pinched cheeks whenever she had the opportunity. She will be 
remembered for her delicious biscuits and gravy, as well as chicken 
and dumplings. She read the Bible and was a Godly woman. Glessie was 
fond of trips to Frazier Park. She collected wheat pennies and 
stamps, but even though she had these valuable collections she was 
convinced that her fortune was coming from the Publisher's Clearing 
House. Glessie is survived by her children, Martha and husband, James 
Brummett, Salatha Davis, David Green, Janie and husband, Lee Turpin, 
Theresa and husband, Sam Raynor, Martin and wife, Carol McGee, Toni 
and husband, John Conyer, Terry McGee, Audrey Walters, Lila and 
husband Ronnie Toy, Don and wife, Jeanie McGee; one daughter-in-law, 
Alline McGee; 40 grandchildren; 60 great-grandchildren; and 33 great-
great-grandchildren. She is predeceased by one son, Thurman, and her 
husband, Grover. Hopson-Anspach Family Mortuary
