Emily Mae Glover Swindal passed away Saturday, May 17, 2008 in Leesburg, VA. She was predeceased by her husband of seventy years, Col. James B. Swindal USAF retired. She was born in Jefferson County, AL on August 10, 1919, the youngest of 13 children of the late James and Sarah Glover. She began her career as a military wife and mother in 1942 when her husband enlisted after Pearl Harbor. She cared for her family during tours of duty from San Antonio TX to Germany, Spain and stateside until retiring in Cocoa Beach, FL in 1972. She always took great pride in the fact that her husband flew AIR FORCE ONE for Presidents Kennedy and Johnson. Her family would like everyone to know that during her wonderful life, she made every house a home and filled our lives with love and endless joy. She is terribly missed, but I know she is glad to finally be with J.B.

She is survived by a son James of East Hampton Conn., a daughter Kathryn of Leesburg, VA, two grandsons, J. Christian Swindal of Ridgefield, Conn. and Jonathan Swindal of East Hampton, Conn., and a great grandson, Mason Swindal of East Hampton, Conn.
