Glenn was always a passionate soul in all he did. I did lose touch with him for a while but when we reconnected he had that same smile showing even through a phone call. Still the same competitive spirit with laughter in his soul. I was blessed to have been able to share some of my best childhood memories with one of God's angels. Thank you Glenn, until we meet again.

Jan, you and Glenn, and of course your kids, are lucky people! Most people never share the love that you shared. They go through life never comprehending what could be! Thank you for the most beautiful memorial ever! I pray for your family that you may always be bathed in the light and love of Glenn! (And of course, that's a no brainer!

I learned a lot from Glenn in the few times that we got together here in Red Hook and at various functions. He was a visionary and idol within the real estate industry I looked up to him.. Glenn's incredible contributions to Brooklyn have made it the greatest place on earth. NYC Real Estate and Brooklyn are indebted to him and will not be the same. My heartfelt prayers go out to his family and loved ones.
