I worked with Glenna at Stafford-Lowden many years ago. She was almost 15 years older than me and she was like a mother to me. We meet and struck up a friendship that lasted 40 years. She was a beautiful lady, so regal and always looked beautiful. I went to see her a few months ago and I wish cherish those memories. I will miss her dearly. Rest in peace my dear friend and I'll see you again one day. My condolences and prayers go out to Glenna and Carl's families. May her memories live forever in your hearts.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
