I just learned today that Glenda had died. I'm so sad to hear this. We worked together for many years and I enjoyed sharing every- day stories with her. I look at her picture and I can see and hear her laughter. It makes me cry. I'm sure her children's memories of their Mom will always be in their hearts. God bless them.
