R. Aileen George wrote a sympathy message

“I had the absolute joy to know Glenn as a fellow volunteer at Crystal Bridges, and at NWACC National History Day. I first met him as a customer at Arvest and we instantly bonded as Sooner fans when I told him I was an Oklahoma transplant and we started talking about art. His light, energy and smile was instantly shared with all those around him. My deepest sympathy to his family.”

Emily Ironside wrote a sympathy message

“Glenn was the first museum volunteer to offer his time to call and thank members. We began working together in 2014 and enjoyed frequent visits at the museum the past 6 years. Glenn loved sharing stories of his family and was excited when my daughter was due around the same time as his granddaughter. I was with Glenn on the tough day he fell and broke his hip in Tahlequah. Even through the pain, his smile brightened his hospital room and he brought cheer to all he met. Love to Glenn always!”

Julienne Springer wrote a sympathy message

“Glenn was a beloved Crystal Bridges volunteer. He was the most supportive ambassador of all of our initiatives. He was a true community leader with a servant's heart. He will be truly missed by so many. As an Ohio State alumni, he used to love to give me hell about who's "O" school was the best. Much love to you during this difficult time.
