So many beautiful memories of our friendship. Glenna was one of my very first friends at Oak Grove and I cherish the times we spent together. We also share a first name and our daughters are both Karen. We got many laughs about that. And her Joy From God (JFG), her car. Glenna you don't need a car now! You are treading the streets of Gold. Ronnie, Karen and Bryan - your mom loves you unconditionally. She is a great person and a wonderful friend. Thank you God for giving me a great friend in Glenna Wallin. Rest In Peace my friend.

I'll miss my frequent rider and conversationalist, but I did get to meet Ronnie one day when we found him at the gas station near Oak Grove Baptist Church. When I'm in your office, I'll be thinking of you. R. I. P.
