So sad and shocked to learn this. I knew Glenna at high school in Ottawa but lost touch after her finishing year at Neuchatel. In awe of her career which made the media from time to time and hence brought to my attention. Particular condolences to sister Cassie. With a heavy heart. RIP Lorne Smith

I was deeply saddened when I heard that Glenna passed. I very much enjoyed working for Glenna while she was the Deputy Minister, Skills Development and Training, and I very much admired the knowledge and insight she brought to discussion related to the very broad range of issues and challenges that we dealt with day-to-day.

Glenna was a champion of what it takes to be a success in life. She was someone ahead of her time. We will miss her kindness and generosity. Our condolences to Alan, his family and Glenna´s sisters, Cassie and Franci. Don and Nancy Bevan

We are very sorry to see that my dear cousin Glenna has died. Nancy and I send our condolences to Cassie, Franci and Alan.

I had the pleasure and privilege of serving as CEO at Atomic Energy of Canada at the same time as Glenna was Board Chair. She was everything that others have said of her: diligent, thoughtful, committed, tough but fair. A true public servant of the highest order.

Glenna was our dear friend for 50 years. She was brilliant, generous and kind. An outstanding Canadian. We so loved her and respected her. Wayne and Alison Robinson.
