Former State Rep. Bob Glaze Dead at 82

GILMER — Funeral services were held Monday morning for former State Representative Bob Glaze from Gilmer. He passed away on Friday. Dr. Glaze stood for top quality medical care and top quality education. He was a 12-year veteran of the House of Representatives and was a man of great integrity and dignity. He had a well-respected chiropractic practice and cared about the people he represented just as much as he cared about the cattle on his ranch. His friends and colleagues say they’re sad. They’ve all said what an influence Dr. Glaze had on the community and that he was involved in pretty much everything, from Rotary Club and the East Texas Food Bank to the school board and Yamboree Association.

Funeral services for Glaze, 82, were held at First Baptist Church in Gilmer with burial services following at Sunset Memorial Park.
