I also did not know you personally. I did read your story on here. You were an extraordinary and courageous woman. A beautiful soul. You were an example of how human life should be. My father passed away a day before you. You two had your first Christmas in heaven. My condolences to the family and friends. May your soul rest in peace Glenda.

Dear Ms. Cleveland,
I never knew you personally, but I have read on JSonline, about you. You were a brave and courageous woman. There are to few people like you in this world. Thank you for trying to save someone's life that you didn't even know. Thank you for being the pristine example of what a decent, caring human being should be. May God have a special place for you in heaven. Rest in Peace.

R.I.P. Glenda you are a safe with God now. My prayers and thoughts are with your family.

January 4, 2011

Glenda you are a beautiful soul. I feel so blessed to have known you. I love you! I know the heavens are elated because an angel has come. I cried this morning after the funeral home confirmed that it was you. Who would have known that when I spoke to you on Thanksgiving that it would be the last time. I thank God that there is no more suffering for you on earth. You are gone from this place but you will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.
