• Glen was a special type of person. We shared many growing up memories such as hitch hiking out to West Hawk Lake with no grub, no sleeping bag, and very little money. Somehow those excursions bring back the fondest memories. With Glen around we always seemed to have a good time. I will really miss my friend. I know Glen didn't have to hitch a ride to heaven. Rest in peace my friend. - Posted by: Gary Morlock (Long time friendship) on: Nov 07, 2014
