I remember Glenn telling me about his days in Korea as a tanker and how he’d chew cigars. That was very different from the times he’d ride his bike across Iowa and tell me how to eat healthy how much he worked in the gym. He was fun to golf with, his swing reminded me of someone chopping wood. I had a review and my boss told me nobody liked me and I started hugging my coworkers. Glenn was the only one that he liked that and if felt good. I’ll always remember his sage advice. I have only good memories of Glenn. Dorothy, you and your family are in my prayers.
