Glen’s greatest passion was his dedication to his wife of thirty-four years, Dena Parks. He loved all his grandchildren, Matthew and Jordan, who are all grown up. He especially loved his young grand babies, Sophia and Aurora because they loved to play by his side. He loved to see Cameron and Brooklyn whenever they came to visit. He loved his daily trips to Wal-Mart, until his health declined, every time he went there he was known by all of the employees and his many friends. He loved to hunt and fish when he could find the time. His passion for his cats was unbelievable. Every time one of his four cats climbed on his lap, you could see the joy in his eyes. He was kind, loving, caring, and left a great impact on everyone he came in contact with. A Celebration of Life Memorial will be held at the Jonesboro VFW, Sunday, January 19, 2020 from 2:00 – 5:00 p.m. Come help us celebrate with all your memories, as I know we all have many to share.
