I met Glenn in Charleston, SC while doing a class for our jobs and he was a really funny guy. I had some really good memories for the short time that I got to meet him. Rest in peace.

I worked with Glenn for almost five years and he was one of the hardest working people I knew. He always put the Marines first and never hesitated to help anyone who needed assistance.
