Glenn was a member of our Adams United Methodist Church. He also had a story to share with others. He adored & loves his wife Delores, & spoke of her often. I will miss seeing & speaking to this man! I know he is overjoyed to be reunited with the love of his life Deloris, & be with his Savior. He often recited the 23 Psalm, I pray when he reached those pearly gates, he was filled with happiness! Rest in Peace Glenn! You have earned it! Jodi Krause

Glen was a great neighbor to have around our business. He always kept an eye on the place. If we were outside the would come over or he would holler at us to come over just to visit. He had some great stories and talked about Delores all the time the love of his life. We will miss seeing him outside mowing his yard or driving by. Great man that loved his family. Condolences to the family.

Glen worked with my dad, Gene Niebuhr, at Gooch Mills for years, and they regularly talked on the phone. Recently I had to put dad in a memory care facility. About a month ago Glen reached out to find out how he was doing. We had a nice conversation. He even stopped and visited with my husband, Craig. Glen visited my dad a couple of weeks ago and I am so glad that they had a chance to visit one last time. Although I never met Glen personally, I feel like I know him. Rest in peace. Prayers to the family.
