Glenn, ole buddy, I'm going to miss you. I'll always remember John Brown's Bluegrass nights, and swapping Dobro licks with you whenever we got together. Smoky Joe always thought the world of you too, 'cause you were always a true friend. Tonight I'll get out the Dobro and play "Fireball" like we used to. RIP ......

Glenn was a warm and generous person. I really enjoyed the times I spent talking with him. A great promoter of bluegrass. His love shone through. I miss him.

Sad news once again in our world of music...Glenn, was a strong supporter of so much of what I did in the music and it was greatly appreciated. I loved to see him smile as Joe DeLillo and I belted out some of those old Buzz Busby tunes, which so few people knew, but he did, and loved them! Rest In Peace Mr. Huffer, the Angel Band needs an MC! "You'll not be stranger!"
To Glenn's family, condolences to you all, so sorry for your loss of this wonderful man.

Carol and family and friends of Glenn...I would like to extend my condolences to you for the loss of Glenn. I have so many fond memories of listening to Glenn's stories of bluegrass and bluegrass pioneers during visits and picking sessions with Glenn and Kevin Lynch and Paul Harvey. Carol was always standing by with a smile. Glenn would have a gleam in his eye when he would bring out treasured cassette tapes of early bluegrass festivals down south. He was always so excited to share them with...

Glenn is a legend in bluegrass music promotion in Connecticut. He had a love of traditional bluegrass and had a knack for knowing a good band when he heard it. I enjoyed emceeing with Glenn at Strawberry Park in Preston CT for several years until he could no longer attend. Godspeed to a good man.
