Not sure what to say?

One of my recollection of him was when he walked up our driveway and us being younger kids we would hide behind the bushes and pitch firecrackers at his feet. This was in the day of cool and it was hard to walk like the Fronz when the brats were letting the firework off. Never loss his cool factor there or in school. Glenn is great man who always walked tall. I will miss knowing he no longer walks with us but know he is walking the clouds with the angels. He had good Karma.

May God be with you all through this time love you Bub ,Kathy and Jan . Sorry for the loss

Raney,
I am sad to hear of the passing of your dear husband, Glen. I will always have fond memories of Glen, my classmate for 12 years at Watertown.
I am away and unable to attend his funeral, but know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.
Blessings, Brenda Parkerson Griffin

Saddened to hear that Glen passed. What a great guy he was, and will be missed by all those who knew him. We had some great times at Knoxville Rubber. He is now on the other side with a glorified body that knows no more pain. Our prayers are with the family.

Raney and Family, sorry to hear that Glenn passed away. My memories go back to when we were kids growing up, hunting, fishing, and playing ball. We only saw Glenn a few times the last few years. Glenn was fighting this disease but never complained. His strength and faith are an inspiration. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

So sorry to hear about the loss of Glen. We had some wonderful times together at Nashville Rubber.

My heart breaks in the loss of this precious childhood friend. We've had some great times together. We send our love to the family for your loss and so thankful to you Raney for your sweet love and care for your precious mate during his illness. Our prayers will be with you.

Raney, So sorry to hear about Glenn. He fought the good fight, he finished the course, he kept the faith Our thoughts and prayers are with you during these sad days. Steve
