Jimmy Glenn

Jimmy was an institution, special man. Every visit to NYC I would stop in and say hello. He always remembered me -- he said you're from Arizona! We had some wonderful conversations over the years and he shared with me his time in Arizona training Mark Gastineau as a boxer. Believe or not -- Jimmy stayed with Mark who lived at the end of my street! So sorry to learn of his passing and my prayers go out to his family - proud to have had time with him!

My first visit to Jimmy’s Corner was intended to kill a little time while some friends were getting ready at the Millennium Hotel across the street back in 2001. But that first visit was the beginning of a long relationship with Swannie, Jimmy, and my new favorite bar!

After moving out of NYC in 2006, I still visited Jimmy’s Corner on my bi-monthly trips back to NYC and cherished my conversations with Jimmy and Swannie.

We first met Jimmy and Delana in 1986 when we stayed at The Royalton for the 1986 Fourth of July celebration. They were the friendliest people we met. They welcomed us into the bar every day during our stay. Over the years, we continued to frequent Jimmy's Corner every time we were in the city. We were always remembered and accommodated each and every visit. We are so saddened to hear of Jimmy's passing and our sympathy to his family. Delana, we hope you are well and we thank you for the...

Condolences to the family from a former '70s/80s customer;
Peace!

Very sad to hear of the passing of this NY institution and overall class act of a gent. Owner of my favourite bar no trip was complete without a chat and last time we talked in December he was effusive in his praise of our own light heavyweight prospect Joe Ward managed by his son Adam. His trip to Dublin in 72 with Ali was another cherished memory and his 80th birthday celebrations were another highlight. Deepest condolences to the Glenn family, staff past and present and his countless...

a great man and a legend. Always made a point to stop in and see Jimmy when I was in the City. He used to put some money in the jukebox when I came in for me to pick some songs for the place. I took that as the ultimate compliment coming from Jimmy. RIP Mr Glenn, you will be greatly missed.
