Whitney Hodges, Lauderdale County Assessor, and Team
To the Stribling family, my condolences to you all. I was raised in the same neighborhood as a child with Glenn. He was my elementary school, physical education coach. I also had the privilege to work as a work partner in cottage 3 along side with Mr. G, as he was called, at Hope Village. He was missed when he became ill and still will be missed. God had a better resting place for Mr. G, so take your wings and rest until we meet again.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
