Thankyou Mr. Glidewell for being a great teacher and person and helping many young people in our community. You trusted me to be a safety captain in 4th grade, which put me on the right track, thankyou, and God bless your family.

Dear Dorthy and family, The Lord brought our families forever together when Carrie and Timothy were united in marriage. We are so thankful for the spiritual formation that you and Art imparted to Carrie and now to our granddaughters Lindsay and Emma. Art served his Lord, family, local church and others with great love, patience and humility. May God's grace and peace be with you Dorthy as you continue to walk in the ways of the Lord. Psalm 32:8

Mr. Glidewell was my 5th grade teacher. I have never forgotten about his story about keeping and "eye" on the baby when his wife went shopping. He always challenged us to think and was stern but gentle and kind. Definitely one of my favorite teachers ever. So sorry for your loss.
