Facebook Twitter GoogleKeith, Norman and Kevin….my heart aches for all of you. Glenn was an inspiration to a lot of people. I know he was loved by so many….including me. I may not have gotten to see him much, but he was so amazing. He will be missed so much by so many. I’m so sorry for your loss. May God Bless all of you!!! Now he is with his mother and even my mom, Ruby, who he could pick out in a room with no matter how many people. She loved him so much. So she will have a hay-day in Heaven since he’s up there to play that beautiful piano music for her. My thoughts and prayers are with you all!! Love, Connie

Facebook Twitter GoogleGlenn was a very special person with a good sense of humor and a love for gospel music. I loved listening to him play and sing Silent Night in German at Christmas time. He was loved by everyone and never let the fact that he was blind stand in his way of anything he wanted to do. He was a musical prodigy from childhood and we loved hearing his voice and music as he played the piano at New Life AOG. He will be missed by many but many will rejoice in knowing that he is with his mother, seeing her, and most of all seeing the beauty of Heaven and our Lord and Savior. Oh what a great sight that will be for him. Thank you Glen for your beautiful music and your innocence. Kenny and Sandy Dragoo

Facebook Twitter GoogleGlenn Will be sadly missed by All His Friends At The Kirklin Wesleyan Church which He blessed many times with His Singing and Piano playing, Glenn never knew a stranger, though He was unable to see you due to blindness He could tell who you were by your smell ( How Funny ) male or female He could tell by the cologne or perfumes a person was wearing and name the brand of smells as well. We use to have so much fun with him, one moment He’d be singing ” I’ll Fly Away ” and the next song would be ” I Don’t Have A Barrel Of Money” So Many Laughs! Prayers For Glenn’s Family And Much Memories To Be Had. Glenn We’ll See You On The Other Side!

Facebook Twitter GoogleI used to take care of Glen a couple days a week. He used to like to play his little piano/organ he had in his room, he would play gospel songs country songs & just sing his heart out. He was a wonderful man with a heart of gold. Glen was one of a kind he had a great sense of humor to him. I had never meet anyone with such a great talent as Glen. Glen buddy fly high with the Angels above. Glen was Loved by all & will be missed by many. Gone but NEVER forgotten. You were a true friend.

Facebook Twitter GoogleWell Glenn your with your Mother now. How happy you must be, you have told me many time how much you miss her. I loved playing guitar and you playing your piano. We had so much fun when I visited you. You would know who I was by the Old Spice I had on. I never could under stand how you could call out the right note when I would hit any string or fret on the guitar. You even told me the key a skill saw made when sawing. I’m so glad I spent some time with you and all the phone calls. I’m going to miss you, but at least I have some pictures of us and you playing, an so happy. I look forward to seeing you someday. Blessings to your family.

Facebook Twitter GoogleI met Glenn this past winter when I was a Mentor at ASI in Frankfort. I was instantly amazed by him…he was so kind, and so very talented. I got to witness his talent when he played the organ and sang to all of us, at ASI. I personaly had never witnessed something like this and I was moved to tears. I was amazed by the compassion he had for performing…he was amazing! No matter what he was going through, while at ASI, he always had a smile and kind word for me. I was fortunate to have met Glenn for the short period of time, I worked with him. He will be greatly missed by everyone he came into contact with. May he rest in peace and enjoy all the beauty in Heaven.

Facebook Twitter GoogleI did not know Glenn. I work with his brother Kevin. I hold Kevin in high esteem and wanted to show our support for the surviving family members. Knowing what I know about Kevin, I sense he comes from a strong family and a family of faith. Reading the other posts and watching the video has confirmed my assumptions.
Our condolences to Glenn’s family. You will all be in our thoughts and prayers.

Facebook Twitter GoogleMy family and I would like to express our deepest sympathy over the loss of Glenn.
May you find comfort in your loving memories and the warmth of family and friends. A scripture that has uplifted me during times such as this is found at Revelation 21:4. There it describes a time when death and pain will be gone forever after God restores his original purpose for the earth. We will even see our loved ones again who we have lost in death (John 5:28 & 29). It is our hope that these words bring you a measure of comfort during this difficult time as well. Once again, please accept our condolences as you deal with your loss.
