I have many memories of Glenna and Bob because they lived across from my parents on Walnut Hill. Bob always took the mail to them as they got older. My sincere sympathy to the family- you have such wonderful memories!

I always enjoyed talking to Glenna, especially when we were at school. She had a wonderful sense of humor, and I smile just thinking about her. I am sure she will be missed by all of you and everyone who knew her.
My thoughts are with you.
