I remember that Glenn was always such a quietly kind guy. A real salt of the earth kind of person and a fixture in our New Jerusalem family when I was young. Mom recently told me that he passed. I wish Elly and the family all the comfort of happy memories. Take care and God bless you.

Elly and family. It caught me off guard reading of Glenn's passing. We had just seen both of you at Solehi's 60th reunion. He was such a kind, generous and nature loving person. Rest in Peace.

"And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God." Micah 6:*
Glenn lived out this verse everyday. He was a man of charity, compassion and faith. He was one of the first people I met when I came to New Jerusalem and he gave me a guided tour of the area, showing me where members lived. He also shared his wisdom with me about life and faith. He was a man of faith who was faithful to the many ways he shared his talents with New Jerusalem and was faithful to his Lord. Even in the struggles, Glenn held on to hope. May we, his family, friends, brothers and sisters in Christ hold on to that hope now as we miss the presence of Glenn's gentle light and love in our lives and wait until we see Glenn again in God's forever care of peace and joy.
