I am so sad to hear of Glenn's passing. Glenn was my college roommate along with Guy and Jim. What a great and fun person. God bless you all.

Dear family and friends of Glenn... I remember his humor, his friendship and his brothers. I knew Greg well and still have fond memories of him from my earlier years at Honeywell. All brothers were talented, funny and great friends to many. I'm extremely sorry for your loss.

Rachel, Rubin and Felix,
We were so distressed to hear about Glen's sudden passing. God must surely have a greater need for him to have taken him so soon. Bob and I will be keeping you all in our prayers.

Glenn is one of the very few managers I had over my work life that I could also call a friend; the viewing this evening showed me that he was a friend above all else to everyone he came in contact with. I will sorely miss him.
