    I am so sorry to hear that Glenda has gone home to God. I just found out today that she has passed. We were good friends and worked together at BCC. My late husband Jerry and I used to go on vacations with Glenda and Mike. I just found out about him as well. Im am so very sorry for you loss. We had lost touch as so many friends do which is sad. I had been thinking of her so much lately and that is why i Googled her name and found this information, i had planned to reconnect our friendship. I pray God will hold them in the sweetest part of his heart forever and ever. Sadly miss.
