Glenda G. Bowden

Mrs. Glenda G Bowden, 82, of Leesburg, peacefully passed away at Willson Hospice House on Tuesday, November 10, 2026.

Born on July 5, 1944, in Camilla, Georgia, she was the daughter of the late Johnny Bridges and Carrie Moree Bridges.

A devoted wife, mother, and homemaker, Mrs. Bowden found her greatest joy in caring for her family and making a warm and loving home. She was known for her delicious Southern cooking and especially loved preparing meals for those she held dear. Her boys, whom she affectionately referred to as her “babies,” always held a special place in her heart, no matter how old they grew.

Mrs. Bowden enjoyed the simple pleasures in life, especially camping, taking trips to the mountains, fishing, and spending time working in her yard. Above all, she treasured the time spent with her family and the memories they made together.

She will be fondly remembered as a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother whose love and care for her family will remain a cherished part of her legacy.

She was preceded in death by her beloved son, Timothy Allen "Tab" Bowden. 

Those left to cherish her memory include her husband, Jessie Bowden of Leesburg; her son, Todd Bowden and Jennie of Port St. Joe, FL; daughter-in-law, Frances Bowden of Albany; brother and sister-in-law, Jim and Becky Brannon of North, GA; her grandchildren, Kyle and Abby Matthews, Carrie Bowden, and Margaret "Maggie" Kimmet and BriAnne; and her great grandchildren, Emma-Kate Bowden and Elsie-Mae Cunningham.

According to her wishes, a private service will be held at a later date. 

Hall and Hall Funeral Home was given the honor to serve Mrs. Bowden's family.
