Amos Glover, Franklin, NC—The community is deeply saddened by the passing of Amos Glover, who passed away peacefully early Thursday morning while awaiting emergency heart surgery. Amos had previously survived a life-threatening aortic dissection four years ago, a condition that only 3% of people survive. Despite the grave prognosis, Amos returned to work just weeks after his open-heart surgery and continued to fight for his life with resilience.
Those who knew Amos best describe him as someone with a tough exterior that sometimes made it hard for people to connect with him, but underneath, he had a deeply caring heart. His intense personality left a lasting impression on many, and his sense of humor, though often corny, was cherished by those who could appreciate it. His unique way of seeing the world endeared him to friends and loved ones alike.
Amos lived near his mother, Lisa, who has been supporting them both through her modest income, especially after Amos lost his job in November of last year. The financial burden of cremation has been difficult for Lisa, who has struggled for years to make ends meet. In light of this, a fundraiser organized by Kelsey Parrish has been set up to cover the $2,700 cremation costs and provide Lisa with some time to grieve without the added pressure of work.
So far, generous donors like Chelsey Gibbs, Daltons Christian Bookstore, and several anonymous contributors have come forward to support Lisa during this challenging time. The donations, which range from $25 to $500, show the deep compassion and care the community holds for Amos and his family.
We are deeply saddened by the loss of Amos Glover, and our hearts go out to Lisa and all those mourning his passing. May his soul rest in peace, and may Lisa find comfort and strength in the days to come.
