A master craftsman who taught me a lot about woodworking when we were building our aframe house in Shullsburg, he was very patient and made every effort to show me good ways to build things which I will always remember. RIP Dennis Pahnke

RIP Glenn......... you were a kind gentle person who showed great wisdom, compassion and the patience of a saint. You were a teacher, a veteran, a craftsman and a special leader. You have gained enormous respect from others and lived your life as a model citizen for others to learn from your example. You always gave of yourself and expected nothing in return. Most of all you were a special part of our family and will be missed. May the blessings of the Lord be with you in your glorious new journey and reunion with others who have gone before you. With love Bob Sefton and family.

Glenn and his brother-in-law, Harry Hodge, skillfully brought major improvements to the old farmhouse my parents and family moved when I was in 6th grade. The beautiful kitchen and dining room became the center of all family life, meals, homework, pets, celebrations, etc. Whatever Glenn did, he did well. I got to know Glenn better when he asked me to help with the start of the Alumni Association. I didn't tell him at the time, but it sounded like an impossibly big task. Never underestimate that quiet determination, dedication and persistence. Glenn was a keen observer of human nature and enjoyed a droll sense of humor, too. I will wish him very much. MAG

Dear Dad.... no, I won't say step-father. You were/are/will always be my father. You have no idea how much you have influenced me and my children. When you and mother were married, she absolutely sparkled in your presence. She was overcome with joy. In her sad passing, you were the one she said she would miss... You are an angel. I love you and will continue to miss you but now that you are together, you can embrace for all eternity. I take peace and comfort in the fact that you two are now reunited. Dance in God's Love. I have been honored to be your daughter.
