My precious friend. I will be praying for your girls an your grandchildren. Sooner than we think I be joining you in our heavenly home 🙏🏼

What a privilege it is to have known Glenna. I enjoyed her company on so many Circle of Friends trips and getting to celebrate a Birthday get together. She is now encircled by God's love as she was always meant to be.

We girls loved traveling together especially if gambling was on the schedule. El Dorado Casino and Resort.  So much fun💜🦋

Just had to take a look again to be sure. I be seeing again in the Lords place for us an oh how glorious it will be.

I’m so sorry to hear of the loss of your mom. I have so many memories of the years we were friends an have told them so many times to my grand kiddos an my great grand kiddos  an they have seen so many pictures as well. I have to send my prayers cause I’m not able to travel much because of this rheumatoid arthritis I’ve been dealing with  these last 25 years but I know  I will be seeing her sooner than later in our heavenly home an my brother Barry an younger sister Stachia are also there so it will be a happy reunion for me.  All the secrets fun an  times we shared  gives me a wealth of stories to tell that I now share with my great grand kiddos an I have five an am so blessed that they all live here in in Amarillo.  I will never forget the first time I saw your mom come wheeling thru our local hangout a drive in place called the Ranger with her platinum hair in a big ole car I think it was a Marlin steering it with one hand right into the parking place next to me an she with some other guys I knew  an she was the new girl in town an a real knockout.  Didn’t take long for us to become fast friends an what a sweet great friend she was.    We had this group of girls that was a force to be reckoned with  an my prayers for all of you because you girls were her pride an joy .

Glenna my dear sister in Christ. Always smiling always there to help always there to drive us to our dinners on Friday. Just always there if we needed her loved by everyone who knew her greatly missed. Anxious to see you again up there. Rest in peace, my beautiful one.

We are stunned at this news!  Glenna was in Bible classes I taught, I spoke at her dad’s memorial service, and at one time she lived on my street.  We stayed in touch but somehow I did not know she was ill.  She was a gentle, generous friend who will be missed.  However, we know she is with the Lord and reunited with family and friends.  Prayers for each of her family and close friends….

I Bess Kessler loved Glenna very much we traveled a lot together,  I got her into circle of friends, and she loved it she made many Friends there.  she was loved by many she was a great hostess when she had meals and games at her house. I have missed her so much and will always miss her sweet smile. She loved Jesus and now she is enjoying His Prence.

Glenna was a fun-loving person who always made other people feel so welcomed and included.  She was organized and liked to get things done.   I liked her and miss her smile!!

Glenna is 3rd row up, 3rd from the right.

This day has come.  Although I know she was ready to be with Jesus, she is greatly missed.  I still hear her laughter.  She was one of those souls who was kind and loving to everyone she met.  I had the privilege of knowing her and experienced her sweetness and generosity.  Goodbye for now Glenna, we will meet again.
