Glenda, I’m so glad I have got to know you years ago. I would talk to Amy regularly about you. You are very loved. Such a wonderful woman. Heaven gained another ANGEL. I know Amy & Robert are heart broken, but they also know, you are in peace now. Til we meet again <3
Good Moms are so special to us and those who get to have them even for a short time in our lives feel very lucky. I believe you were a one of a kind mom and I know you will be a wonderful guardian angel. May your body and soul be at rest and peace be with you through all eternity!
I always loved Glenda…she was my sister-in-law for many years and has remained a friend throughout the years…I’ll never forget her and her nickname for me was “Riter-Pooh”…I can hear her say it to me now! Glenda..I expect to see you waiting for me at the gate in heaven alongside with mom and dad. I am so sorry I never got you called right before your passing. I love you…till we meet again…..Riter-Pooh
Glenda was a good woman and she will be greatly missed. She is an angel now watching over her wonderful daughter “Amy”
Love Lana
