NATCHEZ – Glenda Faye Howard Greer, 80, of Vidalia, passed away on Oct. 3, 2024, of natural causes.
Glenda was born on April 1, 1944, to Seth Franklin Howard and Icie Leigh Howard in Crowville, LA. She graduated from Vidalia High School and went on to study education at Louisiana Tech University where she obtained her Bachelor’s Degree.

One of Glenda’s biggest passions was teaching, with her first teaching job at A.E. Phillips Laboratory in Ruston, LA.
