I'm sorry to hear about Glenn. We had many good times growing up together on Delaware Dr. He was a very good friend. We lost touch after we went to College. Peace for the family. Mike Babin

Vickie so sorry to hear of Glenn's passing. He was a great roommate for the first 2 years at College Station & then the following year on the Texas Clipper @ Pier 19 in Galveston. I remember when he said he met a new girl from the golden triangle. You were meant for each other. Carolyn & I wish you the best in the future. Carolyn & Richard Gardner
