Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry to read this. Glenn led poetry workshops at Atascadero State Hospital with me. She was so worried derail and became a good friend.

To Gabby, Tom, Eric, Laurie, and Yasmin Luschei: I am sending you condolences, much affection, prayers for courage and joy as you go through this loss and celebration of life together. I so wish that I could be there in person, but have sent a little story about her (Glenna) and us. Have a great time together. She certainly loved you all. Millie Lane Berg and family.

I am so sorry for your loss. Glenna was a dear friend and I have missed her once she left the area. She will always hold a special place in my heart.

Glenna was a great spirit, a great poet and remarkable person who loved and blessed humanity. She brought light to dark places in the world; and as Pablo Neruda said of a friend, she brought us a star every day. I'll always love and appreciate Glenna until my universal library card expires.--Rodger Scott

I only met Glenna once, and it was of course wiht Hilda Raz, of course at AWP. Even as a one-time dinner guest she was charming, interested, generous, and had an infectious laugh. Her contributions to poetry and to Prairie Schooner in particular willl live on for years to come. Her death is less a loss than her life was a gain.

Such a wonderful woman! She created so much beauty in the world. I am so grateful

Such a life well-lived! Glenna was a wonderful supporter of the arts. The day that she organized for the woodwind and horn sections of the San Luis Obispo Symphony to work with the principal bassoonist of the Concertgebouw Orchestra will be one that I always treasure. Thank you, Glenna!

My mother, Katy, was fortunate to call Glenna a friend. Glenna was so kind and caring to mom. My sympathies on her passing.
