  1. Glenn,I was saddened to hear about the loss of your sister, Merle. My thoughts and prayers are with you. It seems overwhelming the number of tragedies that you have been dealt in the past couple of years. I know that you will see all of them again, in heaven, as we all will. I also wanted to thank you for staying in touch with my father. He really valued your friendship. He enjoyed the time you spent together, and worried about you when you were apart. Thank you for making a difference in his life. He loved you. Susie

  2. Please accept my sincere condolences. You have my deepest sympathy in your hour of need. Sincerely,Fred McKenzie

  3. Mema, you were one of my biggest heros. I may not have ever been able to tell you that but, the time we spent together when I was little are things I will never forget. You tought me a lot, how to be a strong independent woman. I love you and will miss you more than you will ever know! Jenny
