Words cannot truly express the loss we all feel at this time. Glenn was a great leader, mentor, and guiding light to so many in the Ladies Auxiliary. She always had time to listen and coach. Having known Glenn most of my life, she will truly be missed but forever in my heart. To Glenn's family, my deepest sympathies in your time of loss. Know that she is at peace. May God Bless you.

Your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Glenn was a very special person and loved by so many. She as well as Jack were great friends of my parents, and they had many happy times. She was a asset to the V.F.W. Ladies Auxiliary on all levels. I had more respect for Glenn than anyone. She will be greatly miss.

Glen was a friend to all who knew
her. Our organization will miss her
knowledge and guidance. She was
always willing to share information.
I will miss seeing her at meetings
and conventions.

Glenn was the matriarch of the 3rd District. She was our "go to" person and never offered advice unless she was asked to do so. Always gracious.
She will be missed by all of us but is
safely home in the arms of our Lord. Good bye Glenn until we meet again.
