To all of the Glanville Family, please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. Myrtle was a dear sweet woman whom I admired very much. You were blessed to have had her with you for such a long time. After moving to Florida Mytrle and I still corresponded at Christmas. She was very proud of her family. She was a very loving caring neighbor all the years I lived on Harding Rd. I know she will be greatly missed but knowing that she is home in the presence of our Lord will bring you comfort.
May God bless your family as you mourn her passing.
All Our Love and Prayers,
Tammy Osborne-Habyan and family

To the Glanville family:
We have known the Glanville Family for over 40+ years. I had the pleasure of knowing Mrs. Glanville when I would come to get my glasses. Every year I would take a trip downtown to the office and get my eyes checked and Mrs. Glanville would be there all the time. My father knew Mr. Glanville and had a good relationship with the family too. Thank you Mrs. Glanville for being a sweet kind woman way back when. God Bless you all and know that God will take care of your mother, grandmother and great grandmother.

I was deeply saddend to hear about your mother's passing. I fondly remember our early high school days when Mike Plankenhorn and I spent many a summer day at your house. Your mother always made us feel right at home. She was a real sweetheart and I know all of you will miss her very much. But know that she is in God's House now and is very happy with her eternal life.

God Bless you all.

To the Glanville Family: I was so sorry to hear about the death of such a wonderful, inspiring lady. I had the extreme pleasure of being her home care nurse not very long ago. I enjoyed our visits but especially her attitude. What a sad time for all of you. Please know she loved her family and was extremely proud of each one of you. God hold her close and share with her the rewards she so richly deserves. How right when you say; "there will never be another Myrtle."
