  2. Our sincere condolences and sympathy to all of the family. Wow! Glen was one of my favorite people along with Alline (deceased). We had so much fun on the Trail Rides and all rodeo and Lone Star Brewing Co. Special events when we worked together with Sam Sawyer, Bennie Reando, and Dean King. Lately Sally and I would go to his house and I would visit with him and tell Tales and stories while Sally would chase chickens. I had just talked with him a few weeks ago and we were planning on a visit. So Sad! Cannot make visitation but hope to feel better to make house services. Clifford, please e-mail me so I can give you my phone # for a small request. GFR
