Add A Condolence

I tend to not cry at funerals. I was taught it was selfish; but tears just over poured. As I remember the times my mom gave you a ride from the store; were so soft spoken and polite. I thought to myself, I am proud of you and yours parents.Then the memories of us walking down and up the dirt road that's now paved to wait for the School bus. All of us on the that live on the dirt road we had disagreements but that was a mutual family bond togetherness that you feel more like a brother then a cousin; but I guess that's the it takes a village thing. Love you ~Portia Pittman

To the Glenn Family, my deepest condolences. May God continue to strengthen and comfort you all. Love you.
