Thanks for being a wonderful uncle. Through the years I learned so much from fishing to boats, from racing to semi trucks, and knowledge to jokes. I will cherish every memory I have with you. Thank you for being a great uncle. I will miss you terribly but I can't help but be thankful your no longer in pain. Rest in peace uncle Glenn, you will remain in my heart forever. ♡
