Glenda Harrison
Sun City resident Glenda Sue Logan Harrison passed away on April 10 at 7 p.m. With her nephew by her side, her daughter and grandsons with her virtually and friends visiting throughout the day, she left this earth. She lived her life to the fullest and positively impacted thousands of people. Although she was born in Colorado, she lived all over the Southwest and Mexico.
Glenda dedicated her life to helping others improve their own lives. Physical, mental, spiritual health and happiness were the driving focus in her life, both professionally and personally. Glenda put her master's degree to work in Los Alamos, New Mexico, where she created an Aquatic Chronic Pain Management Clinic, using state of the art Western and Eastern medical techniques and modalities. She was one of the first in the country to utilize and develop biofeedback as a treatment to manage chronic pain. Later, she expanded her powerful work to a highly effective addictions treatment center on the west coast of Mexico. Her commitment to other people didn’t end at her professional career; she was also a lifelong civil rights activist. From marching with Dr. King in the 1960’s to grassroots civil rights organizing and advocacy, she wanted a better life for everyone, and she was willing to spend her life to further that goal. She spent her last few years as a poll watcher and political volunteer, fearless in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. Not only did she give her life to others, but she also lived it to the fullest.
A passionate traveler, Glenda often chose to live in places she loved, including Colorado, California, New Mexico, and two beautiful towns near Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. She traveled the globe chasing music festivals at 70 years old. One of her favorite places was Morocco, which she explored with her dear friend. She traveled to Honolulu in January 2020 to visit her family as she planned to move there to be closer to her daughter and grandson. Unfortunately, she wouldn’t make it out there again physically.
Glenda was preceded in death by her father, Albert Boyd Logan, and mother, Martha Elizabeth Hutchison Logan. She also joins her sister, Marla Lee Hollingsworth; her life's love, Duane Litchliter; and her best friend Ally. She is survived by her only daughter Lori, a professor of psychology in Hawaii; two very lucky grandsons, Michael and Steven, whom she taught gratitude, etiquette and to never stop living life to the fullest, as well as her favorite (only) nephew Sean. She is also survived by her soul sisters, Canela and Judy, and a community of dear, funny and powerful friends who were also her family.
While we will all miss her dearly, we thank her in advance for all the work she is now doing to continue to advocate for our GOOD on the other side of the curtain. It is comforting to know she is now pain-free, a freedom she worked so hard to help others achieve.
