I had the privilege of working with Glen for the Rural Municipality of Charleswood during the summer of 1969. A few of us were students and we were hired for the summer. Glen was a kind and humorous guy who treated all of us as equals and it was great to know him. I have no doubt that he will be missed by anyone who has been fortunate enough to be connected with him as a friend or family member. - Posted by: Bill Stevens (Colleague) on: May 11, 2013
