Glenna Stowell Call
1932 - 2014
Early Life: Glenna was born September 13, 1932, to Brigham Earl and Macy Ellen Green Stowell, in Duncan, Arizona, where she lived until graduating from high school. Then, Glenna moved to Provo, Utah, to attend Brigham Young University.
Life’s Work | Service | Interests: There, she met Arnold Bowen Call; they married March 19, 1953, in the Salt Lake Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The couple moved to Colonia Dublan, Mexico, where they raised their children. In 1980, Glenna’s husband, Arnold, passed away. Following Arnold's passing and the raising of her children, she served a mission in the Mexico City Mexico Temple. Waldo Call was the acting temple president. Her sister-in-law, Fulvia Law, and good friend, Rinda Robinson, served as her companions. In 1994, she married Ara Om Call Sr. (Arnold's older brother) and moved to join him in Provo, Utah. In 2005, Ara passed away. Glenna remained in Provo until her death. She willingly and diligently served in a variety of callings. As a result, she was blessed to have a great knowledge of the gospel and a love of the scriptures. She shared her talents and great love of music with the communities in which she lived. As a BYU student, she recorded several records with college friends. As a mother, in Colonia Dublan, Mexico, Glenna taught piano lessons and helped to create community musical programs such as Oklahoma. Later in life, she served as a temple worker and played the organ in the Provo Utah Temple. Glenna’s musical talents included a beautiful singing voice, the ability to play the piano by ear, and to transpose individual pieces of music into beautiful medleys. She also played the trumpet and french horn. Aside from her music and daily service to others, Glenna loved ice cream, red roses, and enjoyed reading. Her friends and family would add to her list of talents and kind acts, her famous cinnamon twists, hot rolls, pies, and enchiladas. She leaves to her posterity her righteous example, a love of Heavenly Father and the Savior, a testimony of prayer and of the scriptures, as well a challenge to “hold tight” to the iron rod, that her family might be together forever in the eternities. Glenna Stowell Call, angel mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, passed away peacefully on January 1, 2014. She was 81.
