What a devastating loss for all who knew and loved Glo -- she was a true force of nature. Our condolences to her family. We met Glo through our mutual involvement in the International Dyslexia Association where her knowledge and expertise were highly valued and respected. She was an inspiring leader, and a great friend, and she will be missed.

Our thoughts are with the family, especially our long time friend Doug.
