To the Imboden Family: My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.

Glenn always made me laugh and he was good at it. Matter of fact I can still hear him cutting up and joking. He will be greatly missed! Rest in peace my friend.
