Not sure what to say?

I'm so sorry for your loss. It was great getting a chance to meet him when my father and I took a trip out to Colorado a few years ago. He will be missed. c]:o) Cowboy Up!

I AND MY DAUGHTER SEEN HIM ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO AND WAS SHOCKED TO LEARN OF HIS PASSING. MY PRAYERS GO OUT TO HIM AND THE REST OF THE COUSINS, EVEN THOUGH WE DIDN'T SEE MUCH OF EACH OTHER OVER THE YEARS. HE WAS ALWAYS A NICE AND LOYAL COUSIN WHOM I AND MY DAUGHTER AND THE REST OF THE FAMILY WILL MISS. SORRY I COULD NOT MAKE THE OPEN HOUSE, BUT WILL BE IN COLORADO SOON FOR ANOTHER VISIT.

Glenn was a great friend and was a pall bearer at my husband's memorial service just a few months ago.Glenn was a great person.

Sorry I won't make it to the open house. I was cutting a piece of sheet metal just now and stopped to talk here a little bit. I recalled that Glenn could cut any thickness of steel by hand as though it had been sheared with a machine with no grinding necessary to fit it up for welding. I, on the other hand, go through grinding wheels more than most.
I don't have any original words of wisdom to help any, but I know a Bible passage that pretty much says what needs saying about all of us and...

Glen and Van were neighbors who were always ready to help and liked a good joke One time they came by my shop. van came in to keep me occupied while Glen and Tom Fuqua tied a pot bellied pig to my bumper. They both have always been in my thoughts and always will be.

I met Glen (and Van) when I first moved here in 1989. They would tease me and keep me on my toes. So funny. Glen taught me how to back my first horse trailer up. He worked on my truck and horse trailers and kept me safe. I'm so sad to hear he is gone.

I knew Glenn when I lived up the road from them. He was so helpful when we purchased cows and horses I cannot beleive that he is gone. He was a hard worker and he will truly be missed.

I mourn the passing of a good friend. He left a strong legacy of what is right. For that, he will be missed. How lucky I was to know such a man.

Please note the open house to honor Glenn is March 9th, not February 9th.
