Ms. Glenna. I met her one day but I felt like I knew her my whole life. We laughed and talked. She was very warm. She expressed her love for her family and all she desired to achieve for them. She left such an imprint on me that I spoke of her for days. Then someone whispered to me, I think one of your family member died. I checked the news and though she was not family by blood, she felt like family. A mom I hoped to have had in Alaska. She was such a kind soul. My condolences to her family. Your mother was a great person and daily I think of her, the glow of love and care that surrounded her. I hope to meet the family one day, so I may put faces to the names she spoke of.
