Glade grew up and spent most of his life on his family’s homestead on the land his ancestors settled and later operated a dairy farm and grew crops. Every year Glade grew a beautiful garden. His harvest included tomatoes, corn, cucumbers, squash, and his famous pumpkins, which were his children, and grandchildren‘s favorite! While his garden was his pride and joy his most cherished crop were his 29 grandchildren and one on the way!

Glade married Margaret McIntyre in 1965. Together they had six beautiful children: Tawnya Fox, Glenna Holdaway, Christie Holdaway, Timmy Holdaway & Terrie Edler, the twins, and the baby, Rebecca Carlin. They later divorced, but remained friends. In 1995 Glade married his sweetheart, Hermona Anderson and aquired two more children, Julie Farnsworth, Paul Mortenson. He had a son, Scott Fimbres, from a previous marriage.

Glade’s hobbies and passions included gardening, going to Wendover, spending time in Yuma with his sweetheart, Hermona, golfing, and he even got a hole-in-one on his daughter, Glenna‘s birthday. His greatest passion was dissing the Utes and cheering for BYU with his son, Timmy. Glade had a beautiful voice and was a member of a barbershop quartet in his younger years.

Glade and Hermona enjoyed traveling together and lived their lives to the fullest. He loved his family very much and will be greatly missed.

Glade is survived by his sweetheart Hermona, children, Tawnya, Glenna, Christie, Timmy, Terrie, Rebecca, Julie, Paul, Scott, brother, Jack, 16 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. He is preceded in death by his parents, Glen and Sue, and brother Earl.
