Anna Jean and family,
Glenn and I grew up next door in Coshocton County, Ohio. As children,we tried to make rubber from milk weeds during World War II. We worked side by side as Lab Technicians for 5 years. He was my life long friend. I always enjoyed his visits to my house on his trips back to Ohio. My thoughts of sympathy are deeply felt and yet hard to express. May God comfort you and your family.

Dear Anna Jean and family,
Glenn was a long time friend, on my school bus and a neighbor of my wife, Jean. Glenn was an intelligent man, an innovative thinker. He was the Coshocton County discuss champion during his high school years. In recent years, it was always a special pleasure to include Glenn and Anna Jean in our Class of 1951 dinners around Plainfield School Reunion times. Our sincere condolences and deepest sympathies to the family.
