Kendra and Kevin, I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your dad. I have so many fond memories of him from growing up across North Circuit from your family. He was always so nice and was so incredibly handy. He was always building something, remodeling or working on a project. I’m still in awe of the fabulous built-ins he put in both of your rooms and the living room expansion he did. I’m lifting you up in my prayers and sending positive thoughts your way.
It was a pleasure dealing with Glenn all these years at the agency. He was one that i enjoyed seeing when he came in. I am saddened to hear or his passing but am thankful that his illness didn’t get to far gone. My condolences to you Kendra. Your father was a good man.
Remembering lots of good times from long ago. My deepest sympathy to you on the loss of your dad.
Kevin, Kendra, and Bruce,
I’ll really miss all the years that Glenn and I have been friends. We hunted together for years, fished sometimes, and had some highly competitive horseshoe games. I’ll especially miss all our Thursday evening garage hall meetings. Rest in peace my friend!
Enjoyed working for Glenn for years. One of the best guys ever. The world is worse off from your passing. Rest in peace Glenn.
Kendra & Kevin,
I am so sorry to hear about your sweet dad. He was a great guy and i know y’all loved him very much. I miss all of you, especially “Piggy” Wanda! I remember all the years we hung around together, going to all the dance conventions, selling all the ballet arts and crafts. We had a great time with your mom and dad and are so sorry they’re both gone now. Love you 💕💕. Let me know what happened to your Dad.
