    Tommy I’m sorry to hear about your sister Glenda passing away. She was a very sweet girl. I hadn’t seen her for years but I remember her and you when Susie used to go bowling with me. Y’all were very good children then and I know you haven’t changed any either. God bless you and your family at this time of loss.

    Con and I are so saddened to hear of the passing of dear, sweet Glenda. Our sympathies to Richard and the family. We can only imagine how your hearts are breaking. Glenda and I were cousins, and I was also her seventh and eighth grade teacher. I always loved her precious, gentle spirit. Now she is with the angels who are enjoying her lovely smile, as they gather around the throne of God
