Not sure what to say?

Dearest Meg and family,
My parent's recent passing brought to mind wonderful memories of my childhood. Those memories always included my early years at First Baptist Church of Roanoke and my mother's close friendship with Meg, Glenn and Bobby Hunt. My prayers are with all of you at this difficult time. I was blest to see you Meg and Glenn at the airport not too long ago and I was so happy to have seen you. With deepest sympathy, Camellia DeHart

Dear Meg, Cricket, Danny and family,

I just saw this notice and am so sorry to hear the news. Please know that you all will remain close in thought and prayer during the difficult days ahead. May you feel God's loving arms surrounding you with comfort and strength, and may many memories of happy times spent together bring you peace.

Dear Cricket, Danny, Logan & Tanner,
I am so saddened to hear of your dad's, grand father's passing. It is never easy to say good-bye to someone who was so loved and dear to our hearts and there are no right words to ease your pain. May God comfort you, your mom & your family during this most difficult time.

I am shocked and greatly saddened to hear about Glenn. He was one in a million. He appraised many properties for me and became a dear friend. I haven't spoken to him as much in recent years, but kept in touch with joking emails. The love he and Meg shared was always a source of inspiration for me. I passed him going to see her daily to have dinner with her. My prayers are with his entire family. He will be greatly missed.

Meg, We were saddened to hear of your loss. We have fond memories of Glenn and many racquetball games, as well as getting us into our first house. We remember all the fine music you and Glenn provided, both at First Baptist, as well as Huntington Court United Methodist Church. We will always remember you both and the happy times we had together. Mike and Debbie

I worked with Meg at Blue Ridge Public Television during it's early years. Glenn played a roll on one of our first local program series, "Your Court".

My condolences to the family.

There are no right words to express my admiration for Glenn English and
my sorry for the family. His devotion and love for his family will always be remembered.

I am so saddened to hear of Glenn's passing this morning. He is one of the greatest men I knew growing up. I had the pleasure of seeing him a couple of times since I moved back to Roanoke and talking with him was like old times. Always a smile on his face and a joy to talk to. With much sympathy, Kathy Thurman Roberson
