September 25, 1964 - September 29, 2019
    On September 29, 2019, William "Glenn" Pollard received his "come home" call from heaven and left to be greeted by his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He passed away at Vidant Medical Center in Greenville after an illness of several months.

    Glenn was born on September 25, 1964 in Washington, N.C. to William Larry and Gayle Clayborne Pollard (Allen) Later they moved to Kinston where he resided until his passing.

    Glenn had a very gentle and great heart. He was quiet and had a loving nature. He will be missed greatly by his friends and family. He loved drag racing and the times that he spent at Grandma Clayborne's for the Christmas Holidays. He was a self-employed painter by trade and took great pride in his finished works. As most people do, Glenn had obstacles in his life but realized Jesus was the only help that would carry him through and excepted Him as his eternal hope which has become a reality for him.
