I live in Iowa and traveled to Arizona to call on Glen for many years when he worked at The Dial Corporation. I was saddened to learn just today that he had passed away. Glen was always, polite, courteous, professional and pleasant to deal with. I have thought of him often over the years. I had also had the opportunity to play a few rounds of golf with Glen, we always had a great time. You must have been very proud of your husband, father and grandfather, he was a very nice man. I know he will be missed by many!

Bonnie and family,

I can only imagine the lost you are feeling, Glenn was a one of a kind and I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to know and work with him. We miss seeing him every Tuesday, the atmosphere in our office would be changed the minute he walked through our glass doors. My heart is heavy yet joyful knowing Glenn is in his glorified state, no more pain or confusion. I wonder, do you think he's playing golf on the "ultimate" golf course?!
