David Glymp

David was the son of Joseph and Ada Bell Glymp. He attended Marshall County High School in Lewisburg, Tennessee and graduated in 1965. He attended Freed-Hardeman University in Henderson, Tennessee for one year before enlisting in the United States Army. David served in the United States Army as an infantryman from 1969-1970 during the Vietnam War era.
David started working as an office machine repair technician in 1971 and in 1977 moved to North Little Rock, Arkansas to go to work for Grubbs Business Machines. A short time later his drive to succeed lead him to owning and operating his own businesses, Arkansas Business Machines and Tucker Pools and Spas. David operated both businesses simultaneously with integrity and honesty. He retired and sold both businesses in 1997.
