Glenda Holland
Funeral Director/Embalmer/Aftercare Coordinator
Glenda was born and raised in Roswell, New Mexico where she experienced growing up on a ranch and farm run by her loving parents and grandparents when times were simple and family-oriented. Growing up in that environment gave her a love and compassion for the understanding of life and death daily.
Glenda married her husband Lynn in 1974 and had three wonderful children who were her life and world for several years before she took a job in 1985 as a receptionist at Ballard Funeral Home in Roswell. She found a passion and inner satisfaction in helping others during a difficult time after the death of a family member. She decided to further her education by going to a mortuary school and becoming a funeral director at a time when males dominated funeral directing.
Glenda attended Eastern New Mexico University - Roswell, graduating with a degree in Business in 1989, and immediately went on to attend Commonwealth Institute of Funeral Services in Houston, TX where she graduated with honors and distinction; earning the Waltrip Award as most likely to succeed. During mortuary school and after graduating, she worked at Geo. H. Lewis & Sons in Houston before being transferred to Waltrip Funeral Directors as manager. Ventures would take her from Texas to Oklahoma for several years before moving back to Texas. Mart, Texas would become home to her and her husband.
During her career span, she has worked at funeral homes in New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas for over 38 years, including funeral director/embalmer, pre-need consultant, aftercare coordinator, trainer, management, and care center supervisor.
Her hobbies include antiquing, decorating for holidays, spending time with her family, and spoiling her grandchildren.
