I’m so sorry for your loss. I worked with Glenda for many years at Children’s and she was more than a coworker, she was a friend. A true Southern lady, she could tell it like it was in the kindest way you could imagine. She had a great sense of humor and also a great sense of right and wrong. Gary, you were the light of her life and I always enjoyed her stories about you and your dad. I will always remember your mom.
I am so sorry to hear of ‘Aunt Glenda’s’ passing. She was always a sweet lady to me and had a knock-out smile, and a great personality to go with it. I know she will be greatly missed. Sending my love and prayers to you Gary, and the whole family. Mary
Gary,
We are thinking of you during this difficult time. We are deeply sorry to hear about the loss of your Mother. May you find peace and joy with each coming day. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
With deepest sympathy,
Garla and Denise Bryant
Gary you do not know me but I was a neighbor to your parents when they lived on East Avenue in Austin. You were a baby when we moved to Arlngton. Unfortunately we lost contact with one another after several years. I pray for peace and comfort for you and the family upon Glenda’s passing. God bless you.
Gary, I was so sad to see that your sweet mother had passed away. This must be so hard for you to lose them both in a fairly close time. Bob’s daughter, Michele is in the hospital after having her pancreas removed or I would have sent this sooner. I would have loved to have attended the service but this same situation prevented me from coming. I was very fond of Glenda and can only imagine how much you will miss her.
Much love,
Holly
