Dear Norma
I read with shock about the passing of Glenn and I am so so sorry.
He was absolutely the sweetest, nicest, friendliest guy and I cannot imagine how sad you must be.
I find it impossible to say the words that would give you comfort except that we will never forget him.
Love

I´m so sorry for your lost. I was a class mate of Glenn´. Him and his brothers and sister was well thought of. When we left school, we lost control. But I have always considered the family friend. If there is anything I can do , please let me know. My deepest sympathy.

Glenn was an amazing man! He taught me so many things that I will never forget. One thing that will truly stay with me is that when he spoke with you; he was with you. He gave his full attention to you. He was quick with a story and loved to share what he knew, did, and what he wanted you to know. I truly miss him more than words can express.
