Tae Wamsley Glasson, 82, passed away peacefully in comfort at Seasons at Southpoint, Durham, a memory care community on Saturday, October 2, 2021.
Tae was a devoted and loving wife for 60 years, incredible mother of two, gracious and kind grandmother, faithful sister and a loyal and supportive friend to many.
She was born in Staunton, Virginia on June 9, 1939, to the parents of Richard and LaMira Quick Wamsley. Tae graduated from Longwood College (now University) with a degree in mathematics. While working at NASA on the Saturn Rocket capsule reentry path, she met her future husband, Joe, then and now, forever in love. The next sixty years would take them to all parts of the country, from California to Connecticut and many in between. They moved to Governors Club in North Carolina in 2000.
She is survived by her husband Joe H. Glasson, Jr; daughter Kristin Glasson-Kolle and husband Mike Kolle, son Grey, who preceded her, brother Stuart Wamsley and grandchildren, Logan, Payton and Landen Kolle.
Tae loved gardening, an avid Carolina Hurricanes fan, plus organizing and bringing small groups together, be it theatre, Red Hats, bridge or shopping. She especially was fond of swimming, with her normal routine a daily mile swim.
A private service has been planned for Wednesday, October 20 at Apex Funeral Home.
