Mr.Glen has been a great neighbor and I loved to hear him talk about his experiences in the Army and how he loved to garden and yard work. I gained some useful knowledge from his wisdom and experiences. We will truly miss him.

My sincere condolences to the Haley family. The loss of a loved one in death is never easy to endure. May the fond memories of the times you shared together bring your comfort and peace while God's promise of a future resurrection, found at John 5:28 & 29 brings you hope. My deepest sympathy to you all.
