Dear Elva and Diane, So sorry for your loss. I live in San Antonio TX but saw the obit online. Many years have passed since we were neighbors. But I don’t forget nice people like you folks. Irene
My sincere and deepest sympathy to the entire family. Seems like forever ago, we all lived quietly in Castlewood. I have many fond memories of Glenda (and the entire family). May you find comfort in knowing she is at peace with our Lord and His love for you as you
grieve Glenda’s passing. I too make hand crafted greeting cards and find it very relaxing. Bonnie Boulden Smith
