Glenda helped my parents die with dignity. Every day for much of her life Glenda attended to the unglamorous and difficult tasks associated with caring for the ill and dying. She worked grueling hours for very little money. She was truly an artist in what she did, knowing exactly what to do at the right time to help ease the suffering of her client and the family involved. Her life truly mattered to so many people in the small ways that count the most. My family and I will be eternally grateful for the care she gave our parents and her friendship. I love and respect her. See you on the porch Glenda.

Your cast iron bell sits right outside my back door, every morning since the day you passed, I ring it three times in your memory just like I promised you I would. I'm sure you and Herschel are up there dancing together and reminiscing about the times you spent together on your front porch. You will forever be in our hearts and we will miss you.
Love your brother and sister-ln-law.
