To the Smith Family,
Glenn was a very good friend of our family. I often think of him playing with, reading to, and teaching my three-year-old daughter. He will be greatly missed by us all. You have our sincere sympathy.

This is a tough time for all of you to be going through. Glenn, the loss of a child is something no one can understand, even if it's happened to them. It is different for each of us to face. The hard part is the figuring out what to do once your world has been so completely changed. Glenn, I am with you in spirit every minute and I hope some of that energy gets to you! Never having lost a sibling, I can't begin to know how that feels, but I know that it hurts. Gary, Kim, and Karen, know that our thoughts and prayers are with you as you face these next several days and on into the days when everyone else's life goes back to normal and you are left knowing normal isn't the same thing anymore.
With Love,
Stephanie Starr
