I could write a book about Glen and my thoughts but just wanted to say I loved him so much. When I was a wild 17 yo he treated me great and I'm thankful him and mom found each other and got over 10 years to be together. If there were more "Glens" in the world how great it would be. I'm sorry mom and as always stand beside you to face this world
Brenda, I just heard about Glen. I am so very sorry. Prayers for you and the family. I love and miss you

Brenda we are so sorry to hear Glen will no longer walk with us here on earth. I know he is blessed to now be walking with our Lord and Savior.
I cherish the time we were able to spend together. I could see the love Glen had in his heart for Rob Lee, for you, and for the Lord.

I knew Glen over 35 years, having been married to his niece, April Horton, 31 years. Glen was quiet, easy going, but hard working and supportive of everyone in the family, and friends too. He was very content, finding happiness and fulfillment in all the priceless things in life, rather than keeping up with any Joneses, chasing money or things. We enjoyed visiting during all the Holidays and summer cookouts, etc. and I am very thankful that he was "family" to me most of my adult life. As much as anyone I have known, you have fought the good fight, you have finished the course, you have kept the faith. Fly High Glen, free of pain and earthly struggles. - Edgar2
