Gloria Ann Bagwell Obituary
It is with deep sorrow that we announce that Gloria Ann Bagwell, 85, devoted wife of the late John "Jack" Bagwell, peacefully passed away on Tuesday, December 23, 2025.
Born in Norfolk, VA, Ann was the daughter of the late Doyle and Lilly B. Youngblood Mitchell. After Doyle retired from the Coast Guard, the family moved to Duluth, Georgia to be closer to family. The Mitchell family and the Bagwell family histories intertwine starting back with Ann and Jack's grandparents.
Ann and Jack went through the Duluth school system together. Their love story began in the elementary school auditorium, where Jack captivated Ann's heart with his tap-dancing skills and then high school sweethearts. Married on April 7, 1963, they celebrated 60 years together.
Ann enjoyed spending time with her family, friends, playing cards and the piano, and vacationing anywhere sunny so she could tan.
Ann spent over 20 years in the Georgia school system, inspiring young minds and leaving an indelible mark on countless students. Ann's impact went beyond the classroom, tutoring during the summers while also taking care of all of her children's friends that would come in and out of the open door at their houses in Albany, Georgia.
Ann's faith was an integral part of her life. For twenty years, she was a devoted member of First Presbyterian Church in Albany, GA, sharing in the love and fellowship of the congregation. Upon relocating to Greenville, SC, they found a home at Fourth Presbyterian Church in Greenville and in recent years, Ann sought solace, friendships, and great support at St. Andrews Presbyterian Church in Taylors.
Ann was preceded in death by her loving husband, John "Jack" Bagwell; her beloved parents, Doyle & Lilly B. Mitchell, and the sister she missed every day, Betty Jean Mitchell Stephenson.
Her loving memory will be cherished by her devoted children, Candy and Rhodes Bagwell; sister-in-law, Carolyn Allen; nieces, Laura J. Stephenson (Mike Head), Lynn (Richard) Thigpen, and Terri (Doug) Westbrook; and, nephew, Brian Allen (Heather - Caymen & Chloe). She adored Joseph & Bre Thigpen (Eli & Lila); Kelly Thigpen; Lucy (Kenny) Blizzard (Kenny & Misty - Aiden & Kennedy); Megan & Josh Cushman (Mady, Colton & Landon); Jamie & Darold Bishop (Hunter & Mason); and, Charlie & Destiny Martin (Kas, Bella & Alee).
Our mother will be terribly missed by those she left behind but we all share in the comfort that she passed peacefully in her sleep only to wake up in the glory of God and in the arms of her loving family that she has missed so much.
A memorial service will be held on January 16, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. at St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, Taylors, SC. Burial will be private in Duluth, Georgia at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to The Greenville Humane Society in honor of her affection for her grand dogs, all the cats she has cared for over the years, but most of all for Sassy who was with her until the end.
