Jan & Dalton:

I don't know if you remember me or not, but I have the best memories with Glen at Richland Junior High. He was one of my first boyfriends and I've always held great memories of him. I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing and I know each of you are hurting through this. Please know that there are many people lifting each of you and all of your families up in prayer. I know he was a special person to so many people. May God Bless each of you.

I grew up with the Chester clan and was best friends with Jan since 7th grade. Therefore, I hung out and spent time with Glen as well. We went to school together and were neighbors. I always found Glen to be very sweet and good natured. I pray for his peace as well as his family's and friends. The Chesters are a very nice family and they will always hold a special place in my heart! Love and blessings to you all! Beverly Reher and family
