"If

you really wanted to know Litt Glover, you needed to see him in the

context of the children's home or functioning as a husband," said

Joel Richardson, Glover's pastor for 16 years at Central Baptist Church

in Newnan. "Mr. Glover had a soft spot for children, especially

those who hadn't been blessed with a happy life."

The gym on

the Palmetto campus is about 30 years old and was in disrepair before

the renovation process.

"Litt

Glover was a true friend to the Georgia Baptist Children's Homes and

Family Ministries and it is right for us to name this building after

him," said Kenneth Dobbs, CEO for the home. "I knew Mr. Litt

for many years and grew to love him the more I knew him."

Tim Payne,

group leader at Willett Cottage on the Palmetto campus, shared that

Glover sent a birthday card and gift to every child in his cottage.

"He

supports the individual children. They knew he cared," said Payne.
