Kristen, Family, and Friends,



I've thought about Glenn a lot these past few weeks. As time passes it becomes more obvious to me what a lucky man I was to call Glenn my friend.



I was thinking recently of the time Glenn called me one December to wish me Merry Christmas, and to tell me he had a gift for me -- two tickets to the Indy vs. Dolphins playoff game. Textbook Glenn: generous and thoughtful.



We had a great time that beautiful winter day watching one of the greatest playoff games in Dolphin history (lower bowl no less, thanks Glenn) as they pulled out the victory in overtime, scoring the winning touchdown right in front of us. We screamed, we cheered, we even hugged! It was one of the greatest times of my life, all thanks to Glenn.



I tell this little story with the hope that it brings some small sense of comfort to know that although the time we had with Glenn was far too short, what a great time it was. We truly are blessed to have had him as a part of our lives.



As we continue to mourn our great loss, I try to think of times like that glorious Sunday afternoon with Glenn. And when I do, a smile comes across my face. Thanks for everything Glenn -- I love you like the brother I never had and will always have you with me in my heart, until we meet again.



May God Bless All of You,



Jason

Dear Kristen, Glenn's family and friends,

I have been best of friends with Kristen for over 13 years. We have stayed close through thick and thin and words can not express how sad I am to see her go through this terrible tragedy. Glenn and Kristen had a very special bond from the day they met. They never failed to inspire me with their love of life and relentless pursuit of fun and laughter. I know that Glenn will always be in our hearts and that his incredible spirit will continue to inspire me to be better person throughout my life. He was the kind of person that left a lasting positive impression with everyone he met.

To Jackie, George, Gwen, Dave, Sarah and the entire circle of so many family memebers and friends that love Glenn so much, you are always in my thoughts and prayers. The kindness and love that you have always shown Kristen means so much to me and to Kristen and her family. It is so comforting to know that you have each other to lean on.

Love,

Jackie

I just received the notice of what happened and wanted to say how truly sorry I am for Glenn's family and fiance. I've known Glenn for quite some time now, and I will truly miss him! What a wonderful person and a great friend. He was a great man with a way like no other. God bless him and his family. You both will be in our thoughts and our prayers.

I opened my email this morning to find that my father, Freddie had sent me the notice. My thoughts and prayers are with you - George, Jackie, Gwen and Kristen. It seems Glenn had grown to be quit a man!

I knew Glenn from childhood... from the small and simple beginnings on Calendula Drive...I actually babysat him and Gwen...I'm sure all the lives he touched on his journey will forever remember his sweetness as I do...and I pray that God helps family and friends endure their loss....

Glenn you will always be remembered as you have brought happiness to all that knew you. I will always remember your brilliant smile, your “on queue” sarcasm and your love for music & life. Memories I have and memories I will hold because you were special. Thank you for the laughter. May God hold your family and fiancé close as they continue their journey with you in their hearts. You will always be loved.

I was fortunate to know Glenn during my employment at Premier Beverage. He always had a smile on his face, and was a great person to work with. I am truly sorry for the loss of a wonderful fiance and son. May God bless you during your time of sorrow.

The Loadholtz Family,

I knew Glenn from school and dated him briefly. I am just heart broken for you and his Fiance'. Glenn left a warm lasting impression on me and a profound impact on my life. He was a true gentleman. I haven't known many. I have a circle of close friends who knew Glenn and are just devestated. We are all thinking of you and wishing you peace. I was on a trip when my mother called with the news, or I would have paid my respects in person. I am sad not to have been able to be there. Please know none of us will be the same.

With deepest sympathy, Amy Dixon Bosco

When I started at Premier Beverage in April 2004 in the payroll dept. Glenn was one of the first associates I met and I remembered him from the very first time we met. What a wonderful son and fiance' you had and I am so very sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time in your lives. I pray that God will give you the strength to get you through this difficult time. Remember the good times and what you were blessed with for too short of a time.
