Glenda was born in Coffee County on July 26, 1939, to the late Tellie and Cludie Ward Maddox. In addition to her parents she is preceded in death by her husband of 53 years, Bill Roberts; sister, Era Maddox; brother, James Maddox (Vernette); nieces, Lana Duncan and Karen Maddox Love; nephew Donnie Lee; and brother-in-law, Donald Lee.
Glenda was the most caring person. To know her was to love her. She was an avid quilter, often keeping busy by handcrafting the most beautiful quilts and throws for those she loved. Glenda also enjoyed her weekly game of dominoes with her friends. She leaves a legacy of commitment and devotion to her family, all of whom knew how much she loved them.
Survivors include her sister, Mary Ellen Lee of Elba, several nieces and nephews, and a special nephew, Mason Maddox.
