A Eulogy To My Loving Husband, My Best Friend, My Heart & Soul, you were the best thing that ever happened to me. Thank you for always being there for me and always loving me. You always believed in me and never let me quit. You always knew how to make me laugh and sometimes how to make me cry, but you would always tell me you were sorry even when it was my fault just to avoid a fight. We have been through so much over the past 39 years, raised 3 of the greatest kids I know, I used to love to watch them scramble when you would say who wants to go to breakfast, you have 5 minutes to get dressed & get in the car or I'm leaving, man they would through something on didn't care what they looked like but didn't want to miss that breakfast. You always worked so hard to take care of us, you were the smartest man I ever knew, you always figured out a way to make it work or fix it. Even if you hurt yourself you would just put some duct tape on it and keep going just to make sure you got the job done. You made everyone laugh, they would have felt left out if they didn't get teased or if you didn't give them a special nickname on the day they were born. Even though they pretended it made them mad, it really made them feel special. (Even Laura) but for me I was happiest when I would see your face ligh up getting ready for that motorcycle ride, it made you feel free and not worry about working for a day. Then came the grandchildren you acted like it was no big deal just another kid hanging out, but you couldn't wait to have them here for the weekend, I saw you face & I knew then they had your heart! Over the last 14 months, you never complained through all the treatment, you thanked me every day for taking care of you, I know you did it all for me and that's why I love you so much. I would do it all over again just to have you here with me. You are the man every wife, child & grandchild should hope to have in their life. I will love you every minute of everyday forever until we meet again.

To My Brother Glenn:
 Whom I will truly miss even though he was a pain in my ---.
 He was still a decent brother. We had some great times when we were kids. He had done well for himself and had his own business, he had 3 great kids and a good wife who took all his B.S.
 He loved his motorcycle. He would take trips to Washington to see his good friend Dennis.
 He also was a good uncle to his niece Christy, whom he would tease when they got together. She would get so mad at him sometimes.
 Even though he made me laugh and cry I will never forget him. He was one of a kind.
 Always, your sister.

I love you grampa and you will be missed, Love Matthew

Unfortunately,  im stuck at home with Pneumonia and im being told, going to the services isnt a good idea..  My story is short and sweet, but our Glen's name is Charlie, because I never saw him. Everytime I did, he had his back turned to us, or just plain couldnt see his face.  This was ok, acceptable and even became fun.  I dont feel bad for never meetIng hIm at all. Through Sparky, we had our special relationship. Thats how he became Our Charlie and us, His Angels.  I celebrate ur return home and promise to take care of and be there for ur wifee, until u both meet again.  "We love u, Charlie!"

To my dad. I know I could have told you I love you more often but as you always told me "I say I love you by doing things like fix your car and things like that" and and it was true! I knew that you always loved us kids but had a different way of expressing it like picking on us, in a loving way. I will always think about you and have you in my heart and prayers. I will always be your little girl or the cry baby as you put it. I love with all my heart. Love your daughter Jennifer

Glen, Thank You For Being, "You"!! I'm Sure The Roads In Heaven Will Be To Your Liking, "Keep The Shiny Side Up"..!!! We Will Ride Together One Day My Friend!!!
Have A Wonderful Journey!!! You Will Be Missed!!! But More Importantly, You Will Be Remembered!!!

We will always miss your laugh and joking nature.  You always had a smile and a smoke when we were around.  I'll never forget when we were alone for the holidays and had no place to go, we were invited to spend it with you and your family.  In the 20yrs that we've known you, we always felt like family. You allowed our kids to run around your house, and Vince to take all your poker change! I'ts never gonna be the same without you!!

Hi Glenn It's Laura,I just wanted you to know I spent a few hours with your Beautiful wife my sister Nancy. We shared many wonderful thoughts and stories with a friend, Who is a wonderful Pastor Chris. It made us miss you more but smile about many things, we love you Laura.

You were the best dad anyone could ask for, you were kind and fun and we always knew we were loved. My dad was always there for you when you needed help, he was very smart and thoughtful. I miss you so very much dad! Love you always and forever, your daughter Lisa

With many special thoughts, to my straightforward friend, and brother-in-law of 38 years. Glenn  you always made me smile when I was driving you crazy about life and problems, and always stood up for me when you thought I was right. you made my sister feel loved and protected, and your family always felt safe when you were around. I promised you to watch over her until the day she joins you once again, and I will try to do it as well as you did your number one sister-in-law and pain in the butt, I will miss u Laura

To My Loving Husband, My Best Friend, You Will Forever Be In My Heart, You Always Knew How to Make Me Feel Special, Could Always Stop the Tears, Never Let Me Quit When Times Were Hard. I Love You Forever & Always Until We Meet Again My Love. I Love You & Miss You Every Minute of Every Hour of Every Day. I Love You. Nancy

How do I say goodbye to my brother- in –law?  First a little humor (it would be expected by Glenn from me) How do you get a handkerchief to dance? Put a little boogie in it.  Glenn I will miss your straight forward way of thinking, your charm, that great smile and your never-ending love for your wife my big sister Nancy and all your family.  You helped me though some difficult times in my life you would let me cry, shout, say how unfair life was then be there with a shoulder to cry on and a stern get over it and move on.   I will always be grateful to you for helping me be the person I am today you let me know that I could stand on my own two feet and handle whatever came my way. I love you and miss you, your little sister Tina.  
PS I still think idea and ideal mean two different things.
