I grew up with Glenn and we had many experiences together and with friends during our years in school. Glenn was in my kindergarten class and all through high school. His family and mine spent many Easter picnics together with other friends and their families. The doorbell in Glenn's home in St. George had the most beautiful ring! Going to his home for birthday parties and other activities was always so fun. Helen gave me Pauline's small wooden dish cupboard that I played with for a long time. I don't remember the last time I visited with Glenn but now that he has passed away, I wish we would have kept in better contact throughout the years. Growing up in St. George was a happy time. Glenn was a force for good in the Heber City area I understand. May he rest in peace.
