Glennis Faye Swann, age 89, of Conyers, entered Heaven on November 12, 2025.
Glennis was born on February 22, 1936, in Cullman, Alabama, to Boyd and Ruby Dyer. In 1958, she met and married the love of her life, Charley Doss Swann, and together they made their home in Georgia. They were married for 62 years until Charley's passing in 2021.
Glennis loved her Savior and was a member of Pleasant Hill Baptist Church.
Together, Glennis and Charley built a loving family — one daughter, Janet Thorne (Leonard), and one son, Chris Swann. Their pride and joy were their five grandchildren: Leonard Thorne III (Tara) of Carrollton, GA; Charley Thorne (Lisa) of Idaho Falls, ID; James Thorne (Brittny) of Loganville, GA; Sadie Swann and Joel Swann of Bishop, GA. They were also blessed with ten great-grandchildren: Owen, Elliot, Lily, Emily, Wesley, Ellasyn, Lucas, Adeline, Noah, and Elizabeth.
In addition to her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, Glennis is survived by her brother, Floyd Dyer (Mary), and several nieces and nephews.
