Oh, Sandra! You don't know me. I interned at Chesney for 2 years. But I always saw your lovely smile every time I crossed your path. My soul is crushed by this sad news. May the strength of God's Spirit, and the comfort of the good shepherd, Jesus, be with you. I am so deeply sorry you lost your husband.

I had the pleasure of knowing Glen and playing with and against him for many years in flag football leagues. He was an amazing person and friend. His smile will be missed but will live on in Cameron.

I had the opportunity to start on our varsity soccer team my sophmore year because Glen opted to sit out his senior season. I don't know why he did, but it certainly made high school better for me. I have always been so fond of Glen. He was one of those guys that was just always nice. It is surprising to me how hard it is for someone to be "nice" all the time without letter the pressures and stresses of your day to day life interfere. I saw him recently and it was like no time had passed. I actually came home and told my wife how I wanted to reconnect with him and have our families meet and spend time together. Funny, even after not seeing him in nearly 20 years, I find myself deeply saddened with the loss.
