I have such fun memories of growing up Aunt Joyce and Uncle Glenn. Together they were quite the team and their lives were filled with fun and laughter. They had an amazing life and know they are happy to be together again. Hugs to all the Gordons and Kings. Love, Sue & Mike

Glenn was a kind person with a great sense of fun and positive outlook on life. He was the best kind of father to his daughter, Barb, who he spent as much time with as possible. He leaves this life a better place because of the kind of person he was and his desire to help those in need. RIP, Glenn.
