To the Glankler Family,
You are in our thoughts and prayers at this time of loss. Buddy will always be a teenager in my memories - a daredevil on skis. Hold on to all those wonderful memories.
Love, Michele & Randy Jarrell

Kathy and family... I am sincerely sorry for your loss. In Frank's better days he always made me laugh! I still have that image of him! I am sorry I can't come for the service but my love and thought are with all of you.

I will always remember Buddy. He was a great cousin, a great person and one of my heros. Heaven just got a little more fun with him there.
God bless us all,
