I will cherish the many wonderful memories I have of you Glenn. You will forever go down in history as one of my all-time favorite HPM colleagues. We shared so many laughs, jokes and crazy moments together-it's hard to believe that we were allowed to work together! You were my sarcastic, funny as heck counter part. May you rest in peace my friend. Love to Whitney and Kyle

A sudden death in one so young and full of life is a difficult thing to grasp. I pray that the entire DeVoe family receives God's grace in this time of grief.

To my Dad...

I hope you're looking down on us, and are prepared to attend the most non-traditional service we could put together for you.

It still doesn't seem real. I have to remind myself every morning that you are gone. That I won't hear your voice again, or get to argue with you.

You were and always will be the most amazing father - I am who I am, and am able to stay strong because of you.


Know that I love you SO much, and will think of you everyday.

DeVoe family,
There are no words to describe how sorry we are for your loss. Glenn had such a big heart and could brighten anybody's day when they were feeling bad. It was always treat to see him first thing in the morning at work. He would alway make sure I started my day with a smile. He was a beautiful person and a wonderful friend. He will be missed with all of my heart ,but never forgotten.
Lots of love to all of you.
