Glenn certainly has left a hole in all our hearts!
He knew how to love unconditionally, give abundantly, and teach new things patiently.
Glenn has been a wonderful friend over the last couple decades. 
It was great visiting with Glenn and Jean periodically while I was helping at Dave's home. Seeing that golf cart going up and down Friendship Lane with their various furry friends riding along over the years made me smile!
I was always welcomed to visit and so enjoyed their hospitality! 
Glenn was an amazing caregiver in those last years...and I know it was hard on him when his dear wife passed. When Glenn got involved in the Foundry again and helping all of us reach some woodturning goals, I saw him light up again! 
He then became a woodturning mentor as well as a friend. He told me he was so glad to have this time to impart some knowledge to many of us! 
I wake up each day thinking of checking my email because he'd send one usually at 8:00 a.m. in response to one of my messages or
inviting me to come work on a new project. Wood turning is not going to be the same!
Glenn will never be forgotten!

Glenn will be remembered as a man of quiet wisdom and genuine generosity. As a master wood turner, he carried not only remarkable skill, but a deep love for his craft—one he never kept to himself. He welcomed questions, shared his knowledge freely, and found joy in helping others grow.

Beyond his talent, Glenn gave his time and kindness without hesitation. His easy smile and willingness to lend a hand left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

He leaves behind not only beautiful work but a legacy of mentorship, warmth, and generosity that will continue to shape and inspire others for years to come.

Glenn was such an amazing, kind man. He and my husband, David were like brothers.  Glenn taught him to turn wood and they enjoyed eachothers company. Our daughter would come visit us and Kristen would pick up a Publix sandwich to share and spend the day with him learning to turn.  Today she said "oh, how I loved him." So many wonderful memories and ALL are good.
