My deepest sympathy to the Glaspie family, I loved my years growing up on Fairmead Farm with many good memories, Mr G taking us for sleigh rides in the winter(snow permitting)were the best, my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My heart goes out to Rhoda & family. Michael was a great guy. Great stories were told while visitng with him many years ago at the annual Farmarama event in Langley & also occasionally running into him & Rhoda at Trader Joes while they wintered at their home in the Coachella Valley. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
