Mr. Hillard Daniel Glover, Jr.
October 6, 2025
Hilliard Daniel "Danny" Glover, Jr., passed away surrounded by love on October 6, 2025. He was born in Atlanta, Georgia, to the late Hilliard Daniel Glover, Sr., and Georgia Cornelia Few-Glover. Danny was a man of many talents and even more nicknames—Sheep, Danny Boy, Lefty, Judy, and Greasy—each a reflection of the deep connections he formed throughout his life.
A proud graduate of Frederick Douglass High School and Morehouse College, Danny was a gifted athlete, musician, and mentor. He also shared his musical gifts at New Hope A.M.E. Church, where he played piano in his youth.
Danny leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and lasting impact. He is survived by his wife Patricia N. Glover, his children Danyelle Glover Starling (Robert) and Daniel Nicolas Glover, his mother-in-law Lorna Lewis, sister-in-law Pamela Freeman (Kier), uncle and godfather Ted R. Sparks, Sr., niece Jordan, and a host of family and friends who will miss him dearly.
