I only knew Glenn because of the gold tourney I played in for the past few years. He was always helpful and very cheerful. I was a pleasure to know him. My prayers are with the family and the community that have lost a great fried and man. I wrote a peom about my dad who passed away about 25 years ago and I hope the last verse will help you with your struggle.
"I loved my father so very much and I still find it hard to let go...But I can find peace in this one fact, He is now in the arms of JESUS,I KNOW." God Bless you all. You are in my prayers

I worked with Glenn for CMC in Greenville for several years. I learned Glenn was a special human being as a husband, father and Christian. Both of us loved the sport of running and we would compare notes each time he visited the Greenville Plant. I can remember how pleased his wife was starting to run. Often he would tell me how well she is doing. He was truly proud of her. I was not hard to tell Glenn loved his wife and adored his children. I have not seen Glenn since my retirement in 2011 and I regret I have to hear about Glenn under these circumstances. I grieve that Glenn is no longer with his family. All that knew Glenn at CMC South Carolina Steel liked him without reservation. I am sure the same is true at all the CMC locations Glenn Visited. We will all surly miss Glenn. As young as Glenn was he left a legacy of a wonderful human being at home, his community, and with his employer. Mrs. Shealy and Family my prayers are with each of you. May God continue to bless each of you.

To The Family of our friend Glenn Shealy, I work for CMC for years and had the pleasure of knowing Glenn. He was an awesome man, who was kind, and who's first love was his family and most of all his wife, daughters and son. In his office, he had pictures all over of all of you, and lite up when talking about his children. The pictures and drawings were such a prize to him every day and he loved to give an update on how everyone was doing. I am so sorry for your loss. He was a great guy, and will be missed by so many.
Eternal Rest Grant unto him O'Lord and let prepetual light shine upon him, may his soul and all the souls of the faithfully departed through the Mercy of God Rest in Peace.
God Bless you all.
Farwell my friend,
Chuck O'Donnell
