Glenn and I last spoke late last year. This morning my wife, Margaret, and I were talking and she reminded me, that I should call Glenn. My response was that I was always afraid he would not answer. Low and behold when I called his cell phone a recording came on that this number had been disconnected. That brought us to this obituary. So sad....Margaret and I were planning a trip to the ranch in late spring to spend time with Glenn.
Our friendship began in the early 1960's. I was welding at Peerless Mfg. Co. north of Dallas and Glenn and his partner were X-Raying pressure vessels for Peerless. At the time we met I was working as a repair welder, which afforded me special time with Glenn reviewing radiographs. Glenn relocated to Longview and I moved to Allentown, PA and started my own NDT company. Over all these years, our friendship flourished to include my marketing the WrapMaster products. My heart is sad...... my special friend has passed, but on the other hand, is bursting with the love he and I shared.
Love You Brother in all ways and for always.
Robert K. Shumway and Margaret
At the memorial service for Carol Lee at Glenn's ranch, a great meal was served afterward and many friends and family attended. My wife Barbara said afterwards that Glenn could have joined anyone there to eat, but he sat with us next to Barbara, Kimberly's mother. That meant a lot to her. He will be missed by many.
