Glenn Kistler loved God with all his heart and soul! He also loved all people especially his wife Vida, Kay and brownie! I loved him because he was a gentle and loving person to everybody! And most of all I loved him for taking such good loving care of our mother Kay! Glenn, you sure will be missed! A special prayer for you Glenn: In remembering Jesus you are remembering God! In remembering Jesus is to give thanks for all the gifts that God has given us! And gratitude to God becomes the way in which He is remembered, for love cannot be far behind a grateful heart and a thankful mind1 Thank you Glen for loving us all! Your Eternal sister in God, Laima Dickens, Vida's sister
