Glenn Newell

Glenn was a wonderful neighbor living just three doors south of our home when I was growing up on Leadville. Glenn´s boys were friends and I regret loosing track of them. He lived a good life full of good will for all.

So sorry to hear of Glenn's passing. In being married to Ronald Newell I have had the privilege of knowing both your mother and father. Glenn was always so kind and positive in any conversation we had with him. As I just lost Ronald to Cancer in November I know that he was there with an outstretched hand to welcome Glenn to heaven.
God be with you in your time of grief.

As my sister Carolyn said, the Newell house was a good meeting place.
Growing up on Leadville, I have many good memories about the whole Newell family.

Dearest Gar & David:

Two very pragmatic, level-headed guys that enriched our lives. Your Dad was always so very proud of his boys, and he just beamed when he talked about you! Whether it...

We were fortunate to know Glenn and spend many fun times with him on camping trips. He always loved to go along and with family and friends on another adventure.

I new Glenn from Idaho Power Co.. I used to see Glenn at Chuck A Roma on several occasions. I wanted to know more about Glenn because I knew he knew my dad, George Kolar and my Uncle Ivan Kolar, from Horseshoe Bend. I later would visit Glenn at the assisted living home. Before the holidays, I visited Glenn and, he said we was tired most of the time and that he felt his time was short.
Glenn was always kind, and just enlightening to talk to. He was a man I respected and he touched my...

If I were to say something about Glenn, I would just be repeating what the previous signors have already said. I agree fully about the kind, wonderful words that have already appeared.

As a kid growing up, I remember Glenn stopping by to visit my parents. He and my dad, Asa Glenn, were good friends. They grew up together in Ola.

If you have read the "diary" about what these men who were captured on Wake Island went through as prisoners, you would know that each of them were...
