I just heard about this today. Haven't seen Glenn since 1992 but for a number of years he was an advertising client of mine at WGTY Radio. He and his wife Marian were very nice people and a joy to work with. May the Lord bless his family and take comfort in the fact that many loved him and will miss him.

Dear Marian, I was so hoping that Glenn would recover, and then so, so, sorry to hear of his passing. Both of you will be in my thoughts and prayers. Much love, Susan Plitt
