Dale Redick Glover was born January 5, 1921, at his family's home, 530 West Heron Street, Denison, Grayson County, Texas, to parents, John Fryar (Fryer) Glover and Nellora Grace Redick.

Dale's sister is Nellwyn Grace Glover Wells, to whom Dale was very close and of whom he was so proud.

Dale is the grandson of Benjamin Stephen Glover and Martha "Mellie" Baggett, both formerly of Douglasville, Douglas County, Georgia; and of John Harris "J.H." Redick and Mary Mason Vestal, all grandparents of Texas.

Dale's father, John, worked as a fireman and engineer for the MKT Railroad for over 50 years, was active in the Freemasons, and community service. Dale's mother, Nellora, maintained the home, was active in the Order of the Eastern Star, and community service. Both parents, Dale, and Nellwyn were active in the First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Denison.

Dale studied business and accounting at Texas Tech in Lubbock, Lubbock County, Texas, and at Austin College, in Sherman, Grayson County, Texas. He interrupted his education to enlist in the U.S. Navy after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Dale proudly served as a Seabee in the Pacific and South Pacific, clearing jungles and building aircraft landing strips while fighting enemy combatants that they engaged.

Following World War II, Dale returned to Denison to complete his degree at Austin College. He became reacquainted with a life-long family friend, Edna Mae Steele. Dale married Edna Mae February 24, 1948, in his parents' parlor of their home. Edna Mae, her brother, Ernest Jack "Jack", and her parents, Ernest and Georgia O'Bar Steele, were life-long family friends of John and Nellora Redick Glover, Dale, and Nellwyn.

Born to Dale's and Edna Mae's marriage are son, John Dale Glover; and daughter, Catherine Ann Glover Giles.

Dale worked as an auto salesman and owned and operated his own tax preparation and real estate broker businesses in Denison. He was active in the Freemasons and the Shriners. Dale loved to hunt, fish, camp, and to spend time at Lake Texoma. Dale loved spending time with his family, grandchildren: Susan Renee South; Richard Steven Haskins; Caitlin Ann Haskins; and Gregory Dale Glover (granddaughter, Lindsey Nicole Giles was born after Dale's passing), nieces: Sherlyn Ann Steele and Nellora Ann Wells, and nephews: Mark Alan Wells; and Brian Ogden Wells. Dale and his family attended lunch and dinner almost every Sunday which were hosted by his mother every Sunday with extended Redick and Glover family in the area attending. One of Dale's favorite holidays was Valentine's Day, where each year he would give candy and flowers to others whom he loved.

Dale's father, John, passed away in 1962, his mother, Nellora, in 1975, and his sister, Nellwyn, in 1980.

Dale Redick Glover passed away July 25, 1994, in Denison. His widow, Edna Mae Steele Glover, passed away May 29, 2005, in Aubrey, Denton County, Texas. Dale and Edna Mae are buried alongside each other, and both sets of their parents are buried near them at Cedarlawn Memorial Park in Sherman.
