Funeral expenses for Tony Glover & future help

We are deeply saddened to share the news that Tony Glover, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and coach, has passed away.

On Tuesday, March 21, 2023, he fell ill, and his wife Jennette rushed him to the emergency room. There, he was diagnosed with Human Metapneumovirus and sent home to recover. By Friday, he was feeling better, but suddenly on Saturday morning, he woke up feeling extremely ill. Jennette rushed him back to the ER, where he was immediately admitted to the ICU and intubated. Sadly, Tony's condition quickly deteriorated, and he went into septic shock with renal failure on Sunday. Despite the best efforts of the medical team, Tony's lungs and heart began to fail, and his sweet wife of 35 years was told to gather her family for goodbyes. Tony passed away on Sunday night with his family at his side, leaving behind a loving wife, children, grandchildren, and countless friends and students whose lives he touched.

Tony was an incredibly strong man who fought against all odds to provide for his family and achieve his dreams. He worked with his hands all his life, running his own business and supporting his family with everything he had. In addition to his business, Tony also served as a track coach and mentor to countless students over the years. We've lost track of how many kids Tony has helped to get athletic scholarships over the years. He was the kind of man who inspired greatness in those around him, helping his athletes build character, emotional resilience and integrity. He worked tirelessly for his students, often for free, because of how much he loved seeing them improve and succeed.

Tony was not only a dedicated father, grandfather, and coach, but he was also a rock for his family during times of unspeakable tragedy. His strength and resilience were especially evident after the passing of his oldest son, CJ, in a tragic accident last year, and his oldest daughter, Maleah, who passed away unexpectedly. These losses were not only devastating for Tony and his wife Jennette, but also for their children and families, who relied heavily on them for support and guidance during these trying times. Despite the tremendous heartache and pain, Tony and his wife remained a source of light and love for those around them, spreading their positivity and generosity far beyond their own family as they always have.

Tony's passing has come as a shock to all of us who knew and loved him, especially his surviving family members who have already endured so much tragedy. We want to honor his legacy by supporting his family, especially his wife Jennette, during this difficult time. She has been through far too much. We are starting this GoFundMe campaign to raise funds to help cover the costs of Tony's funeral and to provide financial support to his family as they navigate this tragic loss.

Any contribution you can make, no matter how small, will be greatly appreciated. Let's come together to honor Tony's life and support his surviving family members during this difficult time. Thank you for your generosity and support.
