"I remember going to their house and she would let us walk through her garden and help pick things. That so amazed me because Grandpa Max's was off limits! She was a very sweet lady."

"Paul, Phyllis and Fonda, What a wonderfull Mother, Mother in law and grandmother you had and for such a long time too. God is good and I am sure he has called her home for a reason. The best thing that we enjoyed about Glennie was her sharp mind and the storys she had to tell about life. We will miss her."

"We wish to extend our sympathy to the entire family of Glennie. We met her only once or twice. One thing we remembe is that she taught us the name of a plant that grew on the roadside near Moravia."

"Paul, Phyllis, and Fonda, I am so sorry to hear of Glennie's passing. Mom and I had just spoke of her when I was home in March. What a wonderful life she had and what wonderful memories she left for so many. When I think of her it takes me back to all the wonderful times I spent at your home and her home and of course, basketball games. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers."
