To the Calkins Family

I had the honor and privilege to work around Glenn at the Squaw Peak precinct. I had the utmost respect for Glenn as he was such a nice man and one of the best Sergeants on Phx PD.  He will be missed but always remembered. Please accept my sincere condolences.



To Barbara and family:

Colleen and I send our thoughts and prayers.

My memories today go back the many years to when Wayland, Jimmy, Glennie and I were the first, and closest, cousins of Grandma Shaw's family, and growing up together in our childhood in the close bond we had.
The thought of Uncle Glenn finding us out in the orchard throwing avocados at each other, climbing the oil derrick at the back of the property, or other such innocent mischief did not deter us from our youthful exuberance.

Time and distance have separated us through the years, but the fond memories of our youth will always be cherished.

     Cousin Larry, Kaysville, Utah

I want to offer my deepest condolences for your family's loss.  As a child, I was always very excited for your visits to our home and I will cherish those memories forever.

To the Calkins family Glenn was a boss and a friend who always had a smile and a kind word to say. My family will miss him but will always have our memories.

To the Calkins family, I did not know Glenn personally, but I did get the honor and privilege to work with his son Rick.  Through Rick, I got a glimpse of his dad. I'm sure he was a wonderful man who cared and loved his family. Even though we know death is coming, we can never really prepare ourselves for it. But with God's grace and our family and loved ones around us we can face the daily challenges that comes with a loved one passing. From my family to yours, may God embrace you with his loving arms and ease your sorrow. The Austin Family, Bob, Deb, and Angelica.
