Glenn was a true friend and one of the most influential men in my life.
We were colleagues, neighbors and best of friends in our days at Blytheville AFB.

So very sad to hear of Dr. Lambert's passing. We were in Florida at the time of his passing and funeral. I would have liked to have attended his service. Dr. Lambert was a brilliant man and a kind hearted soul of which are fine qualities for a perfect surgeon. He was caring too. I worked with him at the Norton Audubon Vascular lab for many years. He was very dedicated to his patients and staff. He was respected by all. He gave his time to do vascular clinical correlations with us, taught and helped us to improve the quality of our vascular lab. He had patience and helped us in growing our skills. He really made a difference in our community. He will be missed by all of us. Rest in peace Dr. Lambert.
