Glen,
My wonderful brother. I will forever miss you.
Your Lis Sis,
Sherri
My brother, Glen, was a funny, laid back kind of guy. He had many friends and loved ones. Everyone that I have had the pleasure to get to know, has told me how they loved his smile. I must say, I did also.
The events leading up to his murder started with him joining the United States Marine Corp right out of high shool. After serving 4 years as a hydraulic mechanic on jets, he acquired a job in Mississippi. He went to work at Meridian Naval Air Station, where he worked until the day he was murdered. All total he was at the same job for over 19 years.
While he was employed there he met his ex-wife, Melanie. They were together for 9 years, and never fought one time. Melanie is still a big part of our family. We couldn't make it through all of this without her. Glen and Melaine eventually divorced, by mutual decision.
That brings us to June of 2008. Glen had just begun to date a woman that also worked on base. They had been seeing each other for about 4 weeks, from what I have been told. Evidentally, when her ex-husband found out, he couldn't handle the news. He has admitted to going to Glen's house, stabbing my handsome brother 27-30 times, dumping his body in a ravine behind the house, and then burning the house to the ground.
The coward who took Glen from us, has been charged, and convicted. He total sentence was 30 yrs in prison. Its not enough to pay for what he has done to my brother, our family, and his many friends.
Glen will forever be missed by my parents, my older sister, Julie and myself, not to mention all our extended family, Melanie, and his many friends. What has been taken from us can never be replaced. There will forever be a hole in all our hearts and lives.
your laughter
The laughter in your heart would melt a melting pot,
Would rise a sunken ship ,Save a lady in distress ,Lead the lost to find their way and Cause pain to go away.
Your laughter always made my heart smile and face glow. I miss your laughter and your smile.
If I close my eyes I can still hear it loud and clear
we laughed so much I always ended up in tears.
I miss you so much.
Happy Birthday
Just wanted to tell Ya Happy Birthday!!! Im trying really hard not to be too sad. Just left your house with Woody and Sharon. We took you some flowers, balloons, and of course a coke!!!
It was good to have them with me, dont know if I could have done it alone.
I still miss you like crazy, but it is getting easier to remember the good times and not always think of all the bad that made this happen. Guess I am making progress...
Love you bunches Big Brother!!! Muwah
Glen, our son
You are so truely missed. It is going to be a hard day today. You were such an easy person to be friends with and they will be missing you today.
Your Dad and I talk about you every day. Well I guess that said it all.
We still love as if you were still here. Love, Mom & Dad
Our Son
Glen, you can't imagine how much you are missed. I know that Julie and Sherri and all your friends will be missing you a lot today. Also wishing you a Happy Birthday. Today you would have been 43 yrs old. I never could have imagined what life would be like without you. I wish that you were still here, so much. Your Dad and I think and talk about you every day.
We love you!!!
A Letter from Heaven
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

It's Been 2 Years
It's been 2 years since you were taken from us. You are on my mind today. The memories I have of us together and the things we used to do. Even the memories of us three kids together are on my mind. I miss those times. I missed out on so many opportunities as adults to get to spend time with you. I wish I had made that trip to Mississippi to see you when I wanted to and had the chance to. But your schedule was so busy. I missed out on so much with you when you grew up into the man you became. I'm proud to have you as my brother. I miss you terribly and love you even more!!! I wish I could give you a hug and that you could meet your nieces and nephew. You would be so proud of them. And even though they never met their Uncle Glen...they have said more than once they wish they could have met you. And now you are a great-uncle to one baby girl and one baby boy with another baby girl on the way.
I will forever remember you and pay tribute to you on special days. I love you lil brother!!!
Your Big Sis...Julie
2 yrs today...
I thought this was supposed to get easier. It hasn't.
I thought the pain was supposed to subside. It hasn't.
I thought the tears were supposed to dwindle. They haven't.
I knew I would always miss you. I didn't know that I would miss you more each day.
I love u, Big Brother.
I wish this would have never happened. This should have never happened.
I can't wait to see you again, and I will, one day...
Your Lil Sis
As we approach the anniversary of your being taken from us....I can't get you off my mind. I'm reminded of the times you and I played with your cars and trucks in the mud at the house in Fairfield. I'm also reminded of the time you and I had a newspaper route in Milford and we we would sometimes help one another out with each others route. We would be up early on Sunday mornings (4:00am) to get our papers rubber banded and delivered. Then there was you and I arguing over the Vega that Dad bought for us and we had to share. There are so many other fond memories. I'm so thankful for those memories. Memories is all we have now. I wish we had more opportunity for making more memories. But that can't be....so I will forever dwell on the memories we do have. I LOVE AND MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH!!! I'm so thankful for the memories.... *tears streaming down my face*
Your Older Sis!!!....Julie
I am missing you so much right now..I pray everynight that I at least see you in my dreams. You are the only person who really got me..completely. Personality, sense of humor, everything. I will always love you and the happiness you brought into my life and things you made me see about myself. I miss being completely and utterly goofy with you..We seemed to always make each other smile.I miss you
