Glen was a funny man who had a strong sense of humor and what is important in life. We loved joking with him. Besides all of the fore mentioned volunteering that he did he was a shelf reader for the St. Joseph Public Library. His presence and his laughter will be missed.

I'm very sad to hear of Glenn's passing. He will be missed. We spent many hours together in the pool at the "Y" solving the worlds problems. He always had a smile on his face & was upbeat. He was a great person to know & to be known by. He also spent time talking with my brother Al about their experiences in the Navy, when my brother came to the pool. I know he really enjoyed the time he spent with Glenn. God's blessing to the family.

I’m so sorry for your loss. This is one of life’s greatest challenges that we have to face.
Jesus said ,did and promised something that gives us comfort and hope.
In the Bible at John 11:11-14 Jesus liken death to sleep.
This comfort us in two ways: 1) we are assured by those words that our loved ones are not
suffering or in pain. 2) If a person is just sleeping he will wake up!
Notice what Jesus does next at John 11:43-44, this is amazing!
Jesus promised us something similar at John 5:28,29 what a beautiful hope we have!

Our hearts go out to Lorrain and her family. I still remember Glenn's smile and sense of humor when our family arrived as displaced people in this area from Germany in 1950. Unfortunately, we did not spend a lot of time together but we always had a good time when we did... and Glenn always made us laugh. God's blessing to the family... you are in our prayers during the difficult time.

Lorraine and family………
Please accept my humble condolences on the loss of Glenn.
Glenn was an exceptional human being...…... As a jet pilot he had the skill to soar with eagles. As a man he had the compassion to walk and talk with anyone - regardless of their path in life.
Glenn's positive impact on me and countless others is immeasurable. He was a natural born teacher. His lessons by example are timeless...……
'God's speed Glenn!

Lorraine and Family
That Man is a Success (Robert Louis Stevenson)
Who has lived well, laughed often and loved much;
Who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children;
Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task;
Who leaves the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy or a perfect poem or a rescued soul;
Who never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it;
Who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had.
Glenn always had a smile and a kind word. He will be missed by so many from so many walks of life..
