Glennard was special not only because he was family, but because he helped many people when they needed him...He always spoke kind words and could crack a smile whenever needed. I enjoyed him cheering me on through basketball games in my younger years, but most of all I love him for giving those "Grandpa" talks to my son Juanjose when he left highschool for college...He was a great friend to my family, a great father n law to my sister and a precious grandpa to my neice and nephews.. He will be truly missed. Bryan & Travis: I LOVE YOU BOTH...

I was saddened to learn of Glennard's death. I have many fond memories of playing with Glennard as we grew up. Some of my fondest were of playing cowboys in the briar thickets around Tilly. He will be greatly missed by many. May the Lord grant peace and comfort to the family.
