I have known Glenn and his family since the mid-70s. We rode horses together, gardened together, ate pizza together, and shared many stories almost every weekend. He was always there to lend a helping hand whenever needed and even helped us move to Brimfield. He was a great husband and father and we thoroughly enjoyed each other's family. He will be missed. My sincere condolences to Nancy, Kim, Butch, Terry, Ann, and Crystal.

Nancy and family we were sorry to hear about Glenn. He will be truly missed. I dont think Howard will ever forget Glenn giving him a bad time about him cleaning the wheels on the Corvette instead of helping Glenn cleaning the 55!!!!!! Or the time they both got so very burnt at one of their car shows. He is finally at peace. God bless the rest of you. If you need anything let Howard know.

Sorry for your loss We will miss Glenns humor and anticks at the car shows. I will always remember Super Chevy in Joliet as we were walking back to our cars and he comented about how the cop car Da Fuz had placed and won an award and he didn't as I told him it was because of the parts i had purchased from him. We will always remember I'd Rather Go Topless. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Da Fuz Bernie and Mary Veile

Dear Nancy and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Glenn was a very special friend to my dad, Stan. I will never forget everything Glen did for us when we lost Dad. Glenn remembered that Dad ALWAYS carried his airplane keys with him. He took the keys and had them duplicated so Dad could take his with him. When Glenn brought the keys to the funeral home, he offered them to me to put in Dad's pocket. I asked him to do it and he said he would be honored. He placed the keys in Dad's pocket with tears in his eyes. He was a special friend and will be very much missed. He and Dad are probably busy talking flying right now.
