Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
We have still more sad news today.
From the Daily Press - 06/24/07:
Glenna Stanley Little
| YORKTOWN -
Glenna Stanley Little, widow of Joseph L. Little, died Thursday, June 21,
2007. Born June 28, 1934, in Middlesboro, Ky., she was the daughter of the
late Wilson Scott Stanley and Anna Mae Stanley Fallen. She was a peninsula
resident since 1941. Mrs. Little was a 1952 graduate of Newport News High
School. She retired from the Computer Center at Newport News Shipbuilding
after more than 40 years of service. A longtime active member of Parkview
Church of God, she served on the Finance Committee and sang in the choir for
many years. She is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Linda and Tom
Carmine, and a much loved grandson, Bret Carmine, all of Newport News; a
sister, Mary Evelyn Yeary of Middlesboro, Ky.; sisters-in-law, Shirley
Formichelli and Rosa Woodall and her husband, Aubrey; brother-in-law, Bennie
Little; and numerous nieces and nephews. A beloved brother, William George
'Billy' Stanley, preceded her in death. Glenna was known for sending special
cards to those she loved. If only we could live up to the way those cards
described us! We will miss how much she loved us all, and we will hold her
memory dear to our heart. Though she did not want to leave us, she was ready
to spend eternity with Jesus Christ, her Lord and Savior. The family will
receive friends from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Monday, June 25, at Peninsula Funeral
Home. Funeral services will be conducted 2 p.m. Tuesday at Peninsula Funeral
Home with Pastors Mark Hambrick and Paul Eure officiating. Burial will
follow in Peninsula Memorial Park. Memorial contributions may be made to
Parkview Church of God, 1116 Briarfield Road, Newport News, VA 23605. Published in the Daily Press from 6/23/2007 - 6/24/2007. Guest Book |

| My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I attended Parkview Church of God with Glenna, and thought her to be a treasure. She always had a smile and a hug for me. When I moved from VA, saying good-bye to Glenna was very hard to do. God Bless you during this time. |

Dear Linda, Tom and Bret: Our
love, sympathy and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Glenna was
one of the finest Christians I have ever known and I was so honored to have
had the opportunity to have worked with her for many years. She taught me so
much I shall never forget. We certainly know where she now is and she is in
no more pain. She is having a grand reunion with so many who have gone on
before. One day, we will have the opportunity of being reunited with
her...until then, we have so many wonderful memories of this dear lady. We
all loved her so much. Fred, Patty and Ansley Mays |

Linda and family, Your mom was is what being a Christian is about. She was kind and thoughtful and caring and always always considerate of other peoples feelings. to know her was to love her. Never judgmental but always in prayers, never questioned and always reassured, God will take care of everything. She always sent the most encouraging cards no matter the occasion she will be missed. She is an angel in heaven singing as she did in church and rejoicing with those that have gone on. She has her gloried body now ..no more pain....we are in prayer for all the family and extended family and friends. Love and Prayers, Carol and Tom Street, Ivor, Va. |

Linda and Family, Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family for the loss of your Mom. Be assured that she is in a better place. She was a kind and gentle woman who was a role model for so many of us at PCOG. She was gentle woman whom God had blessed with a caring heart and a humble spirit. We treasure the time we had with her. We will miss her but we rest on the promise that we will see her again. Tom and Nancy Foray |

Amazing Grace
Words by John Newton, 1779
Amazing grace! (how sweet
the sound)
That sav'd a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears reliev'd;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believ'd!
Thro' many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promis'd good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call'd me here below,
Will be forever mine.
